Cold isn't an issue for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-392442 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 20:50:27 +0000 Minnie_Girl 392442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is down the hall from the kitchen, by the powder room and door to the garage. I LOVE having a separate laundry room, and prefer having it on the first floor. I don't spend time upstairs during the day, so its location makes more sense for daily work/chores. It's also quiet and very convenient for storing our other cleaning stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-392252 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 18:53:58 +0000 MediaNaranja 392252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is in the garage, which is kind of silly because we have winters and stuff. Last year was a mild winter and the pipes froze once or twice. This year it is supposed to be much worse :(</p> <p>I rent a little cottage though, and I share laundry with the girl who lives in the apartment above the garage, and that is the only place that we both have access to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-392235 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 18:47:39 +0000 SugarplumsMom 392235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is in between the living room area and the guestroom area. It's basically a long hallway with a large window facing the backyard and a door at each end. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-392164 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 18:00:03 +0000 lolabee 392164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: interesting that your laundry is in your garage. Is it heated? Curious about all the piping etc. I'm thinking you must be in a very different climate than I - I've never been in a house with that set up, everything would freeze solid in our winters!</p> <p>@mrs. bird: I hope your inspection goes well, fixer uppers are my fav!</p> <p>Our laundry is in the basement, I guess having to do the stairs isn't really that convenient but I love having a huge laundry room! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-392163 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 17:58:16 +0000 MrsTiz 392163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is in the laundry room which is right off of the foyer. It is a lot better than in our old apartment where it was in a closet in the hallway </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-392145 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 17:45:25 +0000 polkadots 392145@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ours is in the kitchen :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-392139 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 17:34:18 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 392139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a laundry room on the second floor in between all the bedrooms. It's kind of awesome because we don't have to haul clothes up and down flights of stairs like we used to. It is, however, a smaller laundry room than the ginormous one we used to have in the old house... (better for clutter though!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-392132 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 17:28:07 +0000 prettylizy 392132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our laundry room is in the basement in our utility room. It's a pain because I have to walk down two sets of stairs and it's as far away as possible from our bedroom, but it's the only logical place for it to be in the house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-392045 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 16:42:14 +0000 erwoo 392045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is in its own room by the door leading to the garage. My ideal location is upstairs between the bedrooms in its own room. I hate having to carry the laundry basket up and down. I also want an area to fold clothes. What we have now works though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-392027 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 16:37:58 +0000 MrsH 392027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On the main floor by the door to the garage. It is a great place because the noise is minimal in the rest of the house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-391361 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 10:57:04 +0000 Mrs. Pen 391361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: I have no idea!! They must give up their weekend to do it. I know :( I was bummed and felt like a failure for giving it up but it just wasn't practical... And at $1 to wash, $1 to dry it would have become more $$ than sposies :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-391287 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 09:38:59 +0000 Bookish 391287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is a small laundry/mudroom between the kitchen and the garage. Has tons of storage despite it's size, and it's nice and quiet! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-391260 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 08:57:53 +0000 Beebug 391260@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Top floor (2-story) with the bedrooms....where all the clothes are anyways....nice treat and I know I will want it nearest the bedrooms in any future homes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-391256 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 08:55:26 +0000 mrs. bird 391256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: Our pipes froze once &amp; trashed the laundry room at our old place &amp; I had to send our laundry our for the rest of the winter. I hated paying for it, but I looooved someone else doing the laundry &amp; how perfectly they folded it!

That's insane! I'm all for cloth diapering, but I'm glad you switched, how on earth could you have kept up with it given your new laundry rm situation?</p> <p>@shopaholic: , @scg00387: thanks! I'm nervous &amp; excited! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-391181 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 04:50:11 +0000 Andrea 391181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a laundry room on the basement. All the stairs are a pain but I think it's good that it's out of the way. And we never have to hear it running in our living space. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-391132 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 01:22:25 +0000 shopaholic 391132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good luck w/your inspection!</p> <p>In our house we have a small laundry area in between the door to the garage and and another door to the hallway. Tight, but better than the garage (how I had it growing up). In our old apt. It was tucked in a hallway closet, which I have to admit was really convenient. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-391101 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 00:35:14 +0000 Mrs. Pen 391101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: it totally sucks because it closes at 8pm!!! Which means I can't do laundry after lo goes to bed, and that's when I used to do it at our old place :( it is hard to do it during the day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-391098 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 00:28:19 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 391098@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our laundry room is off the same hallway that our bedroom is. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-391061 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 23:32:39 +0000 LemonLong 391061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our laundry room is upstairs by the nursery and guest bedroom. It's so nice to have the laundry on the second floor by all the bedrooms! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-391059 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 23:30:47 +0000 Foodnerd81 391059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is down the hall in our condo/apartment building. It's literally 5 steps down the hall from us, so closer than in lots of houses, but it's shared with the building so you shouldn't just leave your stuff there when it is done washing and drying and sometimes it's full-- not often, though, since a lot of the condos have their own. @mrs. bird: It's always open-- there are only 14 or so units in the building and I would guess at least half have their own washer/dryers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-391055 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 23:25:12 +0000 immabeetoo 391055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>in our apartment it is in a closet off the kitchen, which I sort of love because I use cloth rags/towels/napkins so I can dump them in right after. in our soon to be house, it's in a room off the master bedroom which I am unsure about.. but we'll see! hope the inspection goes well :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-391019 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 22:15:43 +0000 MamaMoose 391019@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have side by sides in a laundry closet upstairs off of our loft. It's right outside of the master. I LOVE having the laundry upstairs so when I do a serious laundry day I can have everything spread out in the loft but it's still hidden upstairs if someone comes over unexpectedly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-390986 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 21:19:15 +0000 mrs. bird 390986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@babyjmama: thanks! I know it's a fixer upper, hoping nothing too awful though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-390985 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 21:17:53 +0000 mrs. bird 390985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coco Bee: that must suck! Is it always open? My BFF has community laundry in her building but it locks at 10pm and is full on the weekends. It's really hard to find time to do it! I'd love a whole laundry room in the house, but at 1,900sq ft, we don't have extra footage to allocate to a full laundry rm :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-your-laundry#post-390979 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 21:12:43 +0000 Rubies 390979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On our main floor beside the powder room. </p>
