FAQs

Should laundry baskets go in your bathroom or bedroom?

Deciding where to put a laundry basket depends on what works best for you and your home. If you usually change clothes in the bathroom or right before or after a shower, keeping the basket there can be handy. It makes it easy to drop dirty clothes right away and keeps them out of living spaces. Bathrooms are meant for handling dirty items, so it's practical to keep a laundry basket there if you have enough space.

In the bedroom, having a laundry basket nearby is convenient since most people undress there at the end of the day. A good looking basket can fit with the bedroom décor and keep things tidy. Plus, keeping your laundry in the bedroom offers more privacy, which is important if you share your living space and the bathroom is used by others.

 

Should you put wet clothes in a laundry basket?

Putting wet clothes in a laundry basket is not recommended. Wet clothes left in a basket can quickly develop a musty smell and even mould. It's best to hang wet clothes immediately to dry. This prevents odours and mould from developing. If space is limited, consider using curtain rods to create more hanging room.

 

Are laundry baskets for clean or dirty clothes?

Laundry baskets are meant for holding dirty clothes before washing. They provide a tidy way to collect and carry laundry to the washing machine, keeping the home organised and clean. This helps prevent clothes from being scattered and makes laundry tasks easier to manage. 

 

How often should you change a laundry basket?

You should clean your laundry basket regularly for hygiene. Some experts advise cleaning weekly with disinfectant, while wiping baskets after each load works well too. The frequency depends on how often you use it and personal cleanliness preferences. Regular cleaning prevents odours and bacteria buildup, keeping your basket fresh and usable for longer.
