WE also have a free electricity deal on Sundays with our supplier so I wash dry and iron on that day.

Always wash the bedding every week - and I have found my "routine" all to pot since I got my new washer - which has a larger drum as my household has decreased. So find I now do a "mixed" wash with colour catchers otherwise I would wait too long to amass enough whites, colours etc to give each a full load (very environmentally conscious - but then using "unnecessary" product - will be more careful buying a machine next time!)

I wash a lights and darks during the week and again at the weekend, the beds get changed once a month and the towels when they have been used twice

It's not really much of a schedule! I just do at least one load a day.....sorting lights and darks, pre treating any bad stains and wash most loads on 30 degrees.

I have no really set routine and am totally flexible on washing - The only time factor that I do take into account is the weather - If it is raining for example and they forecast a dry day the next day then I will leave it a day so I can hang the washing out to dry.

I separate my lights and darks, wash lights on a 60 and darks on a 40. I wash tea towels and towels together. I wash woollens on wool wash

I tend to just wash as I go, although I always make sure that I have plenty of clean towels and bedding after several stomach bug incidents with children/grandchildren over the years which have left me slightly scarred!

towels and bedding 60 degree wash other sorted into light and dark 40 degree no particular day now I am retired. I use a bio detergent for our clothes non bio for knitting I do for preemie babies charity.

We only ude fairy and fairy conditioner as my son has eczema and this is the only thing that doesnt hurt his delicate skin.

Beds on mondays.
And then a constant wash every day throughout the week. Occasionally I get a saturday off

no routine, darks and lights done when there is a machine load. Simple

I do the washing when it needs doing. No particular schedule. I used to do the wash overnight on economy 7 but now I have solar panels I wait until there is plenty of light before starting.
Anything special goes in a separate wash but almost every thing just goes in the same load.

Most washes are done at 60 degrees not less. First time washed items are hand washed as are delicates and bras. Light colours washed separately. Duration depends on who is staying eg everyday if school kids here.

I have a separate laundry basket in the kitchen. That's for tea towels, dish cloths, and towels. When it's full I wash them on a very hot wash. Everything else goes into the bedroom laundry basket and is washed when the basket it full. I don't put "good" clothes into the dryer. I think it ruins them, so I try to line dry them.

I do 1 dark wash on Saturday and maybe another dark wash on Sunday both cold washes, towels on Monday at 60 degrees and bedding and lights together on Monday on a cold wash. My husband washes his cycling clothes on Friday on a cold wash. I dry everything either outside or inside on an airer. If the things aren't dry before another load is ready then I tumble-dry the part dried things, usually for about 20 - 30 minutes.

I just wash everything on 40 whites separate, colours separate and Blacks separate.

I do bedding and towels once a week, cloth nappies every 3 days, then a white wash, a colour wash and darks whenever they need doing

I have lots of towels and bed linen so only do a wash once a fortnight. White wash of mixed fabrics done at 40 degrees with biological powder and softener. Two or three dark washes at 40degrees with powder for coloured fabric and softener. Towels and tea towels washed at 60 degrees with biological powder and no added softener but sometimes add a cup of white vinegar to add softness to the towels.
All washing dried in a dryer and ironed the same day.

Only wash when the basket is full/run out of clothes. Never wash below 40degrees. If I do a 40 degree wash then only use liquid, 60 I use powder. We have too much close contact with muck, hens, livestock to consider low temp. washes. Have tried most stuff but find Aldi products the best. I used to use fabric conditioner but decided it was a waste of money. We don't iron using a combination of stern folding and smoothing or (rarely) hang things on a hanger after a tumble dry. We don't buy clothes that need either dry cleaning or ironing. Very rarely I have to iron a shirt if OH has got dressed up for some reason. He has one pair of trousers that need pressing and he does those himself.

Living alone my laundry is not mountainous so I usually try to wear clothes of a hue that will fit in with the next wash that is mounting up, same with towels and bedding, stick to similar colours that can be washed together. I also decided to buy a washing machine that didn't take a huge load, (bonus - smaller load machines were cheaper anyway). The tumble drier gets used high days and holidays when needed otherwise it's outside on the line or in the spare bedroom on racks.

I do sheets and towels 40 degrees at the weekend and one dark load and one light load during the week whenever I enough. All on 40 degrees

After decades of what seemed like continual washing, drying and ironing of clothes, now I live alone and hardly have any to do. I do a mixed wash every few days so maybe 1-2 washes a week. I just use the economy setting. Hardly any ironing. Everything gets tumble dried but it doesn't take very long as there's not much of it. My poor daughter on the other hand has her washing machine on constantly!

Easy I only have the washing on every 10 days, iron about 2 days later

A washing schedule?..... it all gets done when it needs doing. I'm too busy doing more interesting things to worry about a schedule! Sorry.

We have quite alot of everything so can leave the washing until we have a full load of a particular thing. We wash like with like, so all the socks have a wash on their own, flannels, t shirts etc, but always a proper load. Wash days are either a day that is good for drying on the line, or when we're going to be around to supervise the dryer as we don't leave electrical appliances unattended! We're careful with washing though, we try not to create too much of it!
