Here it is 9PM and I'm doing a load here in our rig while I do other things - like read blogs. :-) I have only seen $1 a load once in our year on the road. Usually $1.25 and sometimes $1.50. Then there is the gas to drive the clothes to the laundry room and where do you put all the dirty clothes until you go to the laundry? Also wear and tear on clothes in commercial dryers could be factored in. Back in the 'olden days' I remember it was 25 cents to wash and a dime to dry! :-)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01707458817030115653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723907305563721812.post-39971586393866800352008-11-25T09:54:00.000-05:002008-11-25T09:54:00.000-05:00I think your laundry calculations are a bit off. C...I think your laundry calculations are a bit off. Convenience aside, just do the math again. Take that cost and figure 24 months, 4 weeks a month, and laundry each week then the weekly cost comes out right at $15 a week. I don't know what laundramat costs you have seen but we have been using a commercial laundramat for many years and it doesn't cost us $30 for 6-8 weeks of clothes. At the RV park we are currently at it is $1.00 a load to wash and $1 for an hour of dryer time (which is more than enough time to dry a load). I think you will find that it will be more like 6 or more years before you "break even".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
