Doing laundry in an RV can be a bit challenging due to limited space and resources, but with some planning and organization, it is definitely possible. Here is a guide to help you do laundry in your RV.

Plan Ahead

Before hitting the road, make sure you have enough clean clothes to last you for the duration of your trip. This will help minimize the amount of laundry you need to do while on the road. Try to do small loads of laundry regularly to prevent a buildup of dirty clothes. This will make the process easier and more manageable in the long run.

Use a Portable Washing Machine

Invest in a portable washing machine that is small enough to fit in your RV but big enough to handle your laundry needs. There are many compact and lightweight options available that are easy to use and operate.

Choose the Right Detergent

Opt for a detergent that is suitable for hand washing or for use in a portable washing machine. Look for products that are eco-friendly and biodegradable to minimize your impact on the environment.

Find a Suitable Location

Look for a flat and stable surface outside your RV where you can set up your portable washing machine. Make sure you have access to water for filling and draining the machine.

Sort Laundry

Separate your laundry into different piles based on color and fabric type. This will help prevent colors from bleeding and ensure that delicate items are washed separately.

Wash Clothes

Follow the instructions on your portable washing machine and use the appropriate amount of detergent for the size of your load. Be gentle when handling delicate items to avoid damaging them.

Dry & Store Clothes

Hang your clothes to dry either outside on a clothesline or inside your RV using a collapsible drying rack. Make sure to open windows or vents to allow for proper air circulation. Once your clothes are dry, fold them neatly and store them in drawers or bins to keep your RV organized and clutter-free.
