Unironically did this when I was homeless. I'd save up for the cheapest hotel/hostel I could find and just wash my clothes while I was in the shower.
I understand that may not be an option for homeless folks who don't have a source of income though.
Isn’t this pretty common? When traveling, backpacking, homeless, or without general access to a washing machine; isn’t it fairly common for people to dump their clothes in a bathtub with some detergent and then scrub and mix them around?
That’s what I always did at least. Does the same thing as a machine just a lot more tiring.
Good to hear you’re no longer in that situation though.
I still don't have access to a washing machine, so I wash my clothes in a bucket, detergent does 90% of the work in cleaning clothes, washing machines just save time because you don't need to manually wash your clothes around.
It's much less worrying than doing it while homeless though, it's not fun hoping clothes will dry overnight before you have to leave the hotel, and going to work in damp clothes.
