Having your own washer and dryer has always seemed like the best way to cleaning your filthy laundry in the world. You get to do load after load on your own time. As soon as a pile has stacked up in thehamper you just hoist it down the cascading steps of your surely illustrious home to your laundry room.You fill the washer and squeeze the soap. After some time you put it in the dryer, clear the lint trap, and wait for about an hour. Then you get to spend the next twenty minutes or so trying to decide on the bestway to fold a plaid shirt or a queen size bed sheet. Still, owning your own in house laundering cleaning units also has it's pitfalls. Did you forget to applystain remover to last night tomato sauce that made it's way from your plate to the left pocket of yourdress shirt. Did you forget to clean out the lint trap on the dryer assuring a need for an extra thirty or sominutes on that dryer load. Really, as much as it seems like having these units in your home might beconvenient it is really just a chore. This is why I have perpetually stood on the side of drop off laundry service or even better laundrypick up. Sure it might seem on the face of it a little bit expensive but the added convenience of simplythrowing your filthy cloths in a bag and getting a fully cleaned and folded load of clothes back in notime is just about the greatest of luxury items and frankly it is almost never as pricey as you thoughtit might be. Beyond all of that the overwhelming detail done by commercial laundry services isunmatchable in your home washer and dryer units. It is as if each garment, linen and everything inbetween has been washed by hand, dried with the steamy breath of a gentle soul and wafted through theclouds while being sprinkled with the a new sent of innocence before it is lovingly and carefully foldedby an army of pixies wearing silk gloves. Maybe this all sounds a little hyperbolic but I spent a long time doing my laundry in junky laundromatswhere the clientele were filthy but the décor was somehow filthier. Finding the charms and refreshingbeauty in a bag of your own clothes cleaned not by you is like the charm and beauty of a sandwichmade by another party. Sure you could do it all alone but when someone else does it the feeling is somuch more refreshing and delicious.
