We do washing a week in and then just before we go home.
Makes life so much easier.
I’ve packed my colour run sheets already 👍🏻

I usually take three days clothes. At Pop I use the Laundry View app and go in the arcade 😁

I spill everything, and when you are a lady with (ahem) a ‘natural shelf’, tops get dirty. Plus I generally don’t wear a top 2 days without washing, unless it is something I just wore for an hour or so.

Looking forward to discovering the laundry app at WDW as that’s new to me!

As a family of 5 going for 3 weeks, I think I'll become well acquainted with the villa washing machine! My youngest in particular is quite messy and often needs an outfit change on holiday.

We have never stayed onsite we only stay in hotels off site usually in a suite with a guest laundry room.
I love the smell of Gain or Tide washing powder and have always done a wash or two on holiday,usually if we are having a rest day .

Hotel laundry usually has a note saying how long the washes are depending on the temp so I set my phone timer and either go back to the room and have rest or go to the pool.As we usually go in winter it is nice to bring home clean washing and pack away in boxes for the next year.

We only take clothes for 5 days so we wash every 3 days. I refuse to go anywhere unless I know where the laundry facilities are.

Ive never done more than 11 nights for Orlando holidays and this time was the first time I had to use a washing machine because my DS underestimated his tops, had intended to buy some but didnt find anything he wanted.

I stay in hotels and take everything I need, go home with a case of dirty clothes, always disappointed if something is clean as I miscalculated.

Other holidays, especially if touring, I take a lot less and wash multiple times, but not Orlando

We take about 7-8 days of clothes and do 2 washes. Once just before half way and the next a few days before we leave. This means we get home not having a mound of dirty clothes and some how dirty clothes takes more packing space than clean clothes.
Disney washers also have online monitoring.
It never seems to waste or eat anytime as we fit it into either a park rest break or a pool afternoon. Put the washing on, go to pool, jump out and switch to dryers then back into the pool. Most wash rooms are next to the pool.
