What day do you do your washing?

[fancytiles]

Totally random one... I usually do mine for day morning so things are dry for the weekend but wondering if there is a better way of doing this!

There is barely a time in the day when my washing machine ISN’T on (3 kids, a dog).

Friday night- 3 loads. Whites, colours, delicates.
Tuesday - small load of colours.

Every fucking day THIS, 2 adults, 3 year old with a new baby baby means 3 bed but the baby has bad reflux so the two us get changed multiple times a day and night.

Every. Single. Day.

Everyday. Several loads.

Do people even have a specific washing day anymore ?

Not that I am aware of Cushion, I remember my mum doing washing on two specific days around her work as a child in the days of a twin tub and it needing her attention.

Ah the twintub...

Once a week on a Saturday. Live alone and use an airer. No point doing it more than that.

Every day, 3/4 times a day if the teens appear with their baskets! Doing the washing should be classed as a full time job!! 😂

I wash uniforms on a Tuesday evening, then change beds and wash all bedding on a Wednesday and then Friday change all the towels and wash those. Saturday or Sunday morning I empty the washing baskets and put it all through, the aim to have all clothes put away on Sunday evening ready for the week ahead.

I do two lots a week, usually on Mondays and Thursdays because we don't have a garden and I don't like washing hanging round the house all weekend.

Every day so the basket is almost always empty, I do have a day off washing at the weekend though - normally a Saturday!

Every day bar xmas day and my birthday.

Every day, sometimes more than one load.

Darks x 3 - usually Monday, Thursday and Saturday.
Lights x 1 - usually Friday.
Towels/bed linen at the weekend.
I like a system!

When there's enough, only mine to do as everyone dies their own now, they are adults

What day?! Every day!

Everyday. Dh usually tackles laundry. He enjoys it
Once a week wouldn't cut it here. Uniform needs a quick wash and I don't have tonnes of spares (PE kit Friday and two other sets of full uniform)

Uniform is washed on Saturday. Football/pe kits on sunday (just because they need to be ready) everything else is washed when it's nice enough to hang on the line.

How does anyone create enough washing for several loads a day?!

Usually on a weekend because thats when were home but i often set a wash to go early hours and peg it out before work if i know its going to be a nice day.

Normally 5 out of 7 days. And on those days it's 2-3 loads a day. Never have enough for a load a day then I have too much every 2 days.

Except Fridays. I always do bedding on a Friday. That's the only day where there is always at least 2 loads and it never changes.

Eaaasily holiday

There's just me - bedding, gym stuff, towels as well as clothes (lights, darks, delicates etc)

Every day. At the weekend towels and bedding in addition to uniform, I’ve bought enough uniform for a change every day so I don’t have to wash it during the week, but as DP and I don’t wear work wear and wear whatever we like to work and also have DS2 in nursery it soon piles up so there’s never a laundry free day.

Our bed Monday
Colours Tuesday
Darks Wednesday
Kids beds Thursday
Towels Friday
Darks (school uniform included ) Saturday
Whites (week of school shirts) Saturday or Sunday depending on the weather and if I can dry outside.
Plus bras once every 8 days (have about 9 bras)
Hand wash/delicates once a week or two weeks depending.
DH stinky bike kit weekly.
DH work shirts weekly.
So that's daily with an extra 4 loads slotted in as and when. It's very unlikely to go a day without washing a load.
There's 4 of us.

Two of us in the house, 2 or 3 times a week.
