I switched completly over to a tumble dryer now. You cut all ironing, all your laundry is done in the same day, no stiffness or fabric softner needed, no pollen or dirt. Way less work as well. And with a heatpump dryer I do that efficently and gently. |

I prefer to line dry, but it's not always feasible with our weather. I like the fresh smell of line dried laundry. A nice warm, windy day, and everything feels soft, as though it has been through the tumble dryer. |

Over the line drying at my first apartment in Germany forced me back to tumble dryers. They're horrid about it. Had my clothes taken down several times, even though it was 'my' time on the list. Not to mention the nasty old women who call the cops on you in Bayern for washing on a Sunday. Then I had to listen to 'green' acquaintances and their bio-dämlichen arguments about how "I" was destroying the entire planets environment by using one. Sheesh. Here in the 'States, at least, I can hang my clothes out to dry when I want to without a fight. (Though in the city just to our south, line drying is forbidden! They actually call the cops on you and it's a major fine!!!). |

There are some housing developments that have covenants against having a clothes line at all. Some only restrict that it can't be visible from the front of the property.
As far as the city itself, there is no restrictions on line drying unless you live I one of the areas with restrictive covenants.
Called the cops for washing on Sunday. Is there some blue law or something? Why can't you wash on Sunday? |

Here in Hawaii, hanging is the best. It takes less time because of the tradewinds blowing all day and a higher speed spin on the Frigemore front loader we use.. Most clothes coming out are dry enough to wear. Shorts, T-shirts, socks and tennis shoes. Dry in twenty minutes by line. Smelling Gain fresh and clean.
