Easy Ways to Hand Wash Your Clothes | Tru Earth Laundry Detergent Sheet Review

In this video I share how I hand wash my laundry while on the road. My preferred method at the moment is to use Tru Earth Laundry Detergent Sheets amzn.to/4a6IAJQ
These laundry sheets are perfect for doing laundry while traveling. There are 32 lightweight laundry strips with concentrated soap. Each strip is perforated and can be split in half for a total of 64 loads of medium size laundry. They work well when hand washing clothes in the sink, etc.
This pack costs $16 USD, which works out to $0.25 / load. Not too shabby!

Do you have any tips or advice on how to wash your clothes while traveling?
My preferred method at the moment is to use Tru Earth Laundry Detergent Strips amzn.to/4a6IAJQ

Re requested tips: Laundry in bath: Get in and stomp on yr clothes as if you're grape stomping at a vineyard. Best done SOBER so you don't slip. Be careful. Small items? Use plastic jar w/screw on lid. Costco "Mixed Nut" container or a large Mayo container are perfect. Stuff socks n' other items in it when packing to save space. Put an agitator in w /soap n' water. I use one that came w/ shaker/blender bottle. Shake container vigorously. Soak for a while if there's heavy dirt then shake again. It's like a tiny washing machine! For extra hanging space when not travelling : Install a second shower curtain pole above yr bath. Put yr laundry on hangers and hang them there. ps: Yr laundry strips are cool.

Brilliant! So many good ideas. I love the idea of the mini-laundry machine with a plastic container with a lid.
The grape stomping analogy is perfect. It reminds me of the Grape Lady falls video: ruclips.net/video/STbhaqsBJB0/видео.html
This makes me laugh out loud every single time I watch it.
