Off Grid Laundry Tutorial

When you're boondocking or don't have access to a laundromat, you dan do laundry the off grid way, with three buckets, a plunger and some laundry detergent. Supply list links below:
Three five-gallon buckets: amzn.to/449chXV
Washing Wand laundry plunger: amzn.to/3MPgkBZ
Earth Breeze Laundry Detergent Sheets: amzn.to/3NznOJ0

I watched a lot of these videos on the laundry buckets but yours had 3 extra things! The extra bucket with the one hole drain and the foam disc plus sitting on the bucket for less wringing. Love it!

Great system, love the laundry plunger! Thanks for sharing

[@braxenaeurasiers]

WOW THIS IS GENIUS!!!! Thank you so much for adding links. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like the plunger is available anymore.....

Thanks for your reply and the note. I added a link to a different washing wand to the video description. This would work: amzn.to/3MPgkBZ

I have seen Chinese hand-worked, simple washing machines where you wash by rotating a handle on the lid. Has anybody experience with it?

Salad spinners are great to get most of water out

Great idea!

I was thinking about off grid laundry and I thought of my o cedar mop with the spinner. Why can't we get a spinner with a foot pedal that fits over the bath tub, large enough to do laundry? It would be hands free since you are using the foot pedal to get the process spinning. the spinner basket should lower into the detergent water filled tub to be able to agitate the clothes and it should be able to raise out of the water enough to spin to throw the water off. then use the shower nozzle or hose to rinse the clothes, then spin again to drain off the excess water. You would be able to see when your clothes are clean and clear of dirt or detergent rather than trust your electric washing machine. I would add a wringer also just to ensure the water is just drained off completely. I don't think this has been invented yet. Maybe you and your husband can invent it. All the off grid and tiny home families would buy it, as well as apartment dwellers who have to lug their laundry to a laundromat.

instead we uses the wringer for the big mop buckets - industrial yellow kind - not as good as the wringer for clothes but it works in a pinch to get more water out

Love your video. Where did you get the plunger ?

Hi Jackie. The link is in the bio--here it is again: amzn.to/3MPgkBZ. It looks different than the one in the video -- I think they changed the design from a plastic handle to metal.
