Keeping clothes clean while on the road can be a serious challenge, and one that can add unexpected expenses to your travel budget. When faced with a suitcase full of dirty, worn clothes, cleaning options can be limited and often expensive. Luckily, Laundreez developed a compact, portable solution in the form of a laundry bag that allows you to clean your clothes in just a few minutes.

 

To use the portable laundry bag, add detergent and water to the designated fill line on the bag. (Be sure to pack a small sample of detergent in your luggage.) Add clothes to the bag, then secure the opening by folding the seal three to four times and clipping it in place. Then, holding the cap with one hand and the bottom of the bag with another, swish the clothes back and forth to thoroughly clean the contents. Once the items are saturated, let them soak, then shake again to remove excess dirt.

 

To rinse, empty the soapy water from the bag and replace it with clean water. Perform the same shaking action to thoroughly rinse the clothes. Then they are ready to dry on the included Laundreez drying line. When not using the bag, it folds up neatly and compactly to store in your carry-on luggage or backpack. The bag can also be used to keep electronics dry when visiting the lake or the beach, or it can be filled with ice and serve as a cooler to keep drinks cold.

 

The Laundreez laundry bag can be purchased on Amazon.com for $35 plus shipping.
