So I'm trying to compare using a diaper service to avoid the mountains of laundry against disposables. I'm definitely willing to pay a little extra to use cloth, but not a ton, since we'll be on one income.</p> <p>The only diaper service in our area is $100/month for their twin package, but we'd also need to buy some covers. Luckily, they also sell gently used covers for about $2.50 each, which would help us keep those costs pretty reasonable.</p> <p>So my question is about how much do you spend on disposables each month? Is it in the ballpark of $50-60/month per baby or significantly cheaper?</p> <p>And if anyone out there is using a diaper service - do you like it and think it's comparably convenient to disposables? </p>
