Laundry Day.

 Thursday 17th November 2022

How do I do laundry?

Panther Creek State Park campsite had laundry facilities at the bathhouse that you could walk to (quite a luxury!), but you had to drive to Fall Creek Falls laundry which was next to the park shop. Some State Parks do not have laundry facilities and I will have to go into the nearest town to find some.

Our RV has plumbing for either a combo washer/dryer or separate washer and dryer but if we got either option we would lose one or two of our closets along with much needed clothes hanging space. I watched a Youtube couple who had worked out the financial aspects of having your own machines versus going to a laundry and it would take five or six years to break even as RV machines are about $1000.

I figure it gets me out n about and I get to chat to people at the laundry. While I waited for the washing I got to look around the shop and found Moon Pies - not vegan and not in any way healthy but pretty tasty!



A wash load costs $1.50 for a normal cool wash, $1.75 for a warm wash and $2 for hot water or heavy loads. Dryers cost $1 and are mega hot even on the gentle setting so I will have to take care with underwear and sports type clothing. Prices will vary depending on State and if at a State Park or private campground.
