It's right when we enter into the house via the garage. If you don't have any place to wash them downstairs, how about a backyard hose? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-bother-cleaning-rain-boots#post-2703849 Tue, 28 Feb 2017 13:24:52 +0000 katsupgirl 2703849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have separate shoes for wearing in the backyard and wearing on the street. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-bother-cleaning-rain-boots#post-2703827 Tue, 28 Feb 2017 12:23:28 +0000 psw27 2703827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a sink in our garage so we can rinse them off but we also don't put our LOs boots on in the car. He's rear facing still so we don't want the ick to get into our seat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-bother-cleaning-rain-boots#post-2703792 Tue, 28 Feb 2017 10:48:26 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2703792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wash ours, but I have a sink in the mudroom for that purpose.<br /> In your case I'd get designated outside shoes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-bother-cleaning-rain-boots#post-2703791 Tue, 28 Feb 2017 10:46:56 +0000 Madison43 2703791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just hose them off outside and leave them to dry on a towel on my kitchen floor </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-bother-cleaning-rain-boots#post-2703789 Tue, 28 Feb 2017 10:45:32 +0000 looch 2703789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a utility sink in the laundry room, it's where I scrub my son's muddy shoes. The laundry connects to the garage, but on days when my son's shoes are really muddy, we also have plastic mats in the car on the floor.</p> <p>You could always get a dish bin (you know those plastic square bins that you can put in the sink to wash dishes?) to transport them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-bother-cleaning-rain-boots#post-2703786 Tue, 28 Feb 2017 10:39:49 +0000 PinkElephant 2703786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ick! Warm weather has meant a mucky backyard playset - I'm dealing by sending my girls out in their rain boots....but then I still have to wash the boots off so that they can be worn in the car on rainy days! My laundry room is upstairs, so it's a pain hauling them upstairs, hoping they don't drip everywhere! (I know this sounds lazy, but I really hate mopping). </p> <p>How do you resolve this issue? Separate yard shoes/boots that don't get worn anywhere else? Suck it up and wash the boots every time they go out? Something else I'm not thinking of? </p>
