My washing machine is broken, I don't have any money, and I need some clean clothes?

What is the best way to get clothes really clean? Does handwashing work well?My washing machine is broken, I don't have any money, and I need some clean clothes?
Before washing machines are invented, people have been handwashing their clothes. I believe handwashing acually clean cloths better.





Here are some tips from someone who had to hand wash his cloths for 15 years.





1. Get a big bin. Soak your cloths in laundry detergent for an hour or so, it helps losen the dirt.





2. Get a medium soft large brush, start brush each cloths down where the most dirty areas are. Armpits, neck, collars, pockets, cuffs. After brushing, squeez them out a bit and pile them somewhere.





3. Discard the soap water out of the bin, fill it up with clean water. Start rinsing your cloths one by one and lightly squeezing them out and piling them somewhere. Discard the water, filled it up again and repeat the procedure 2 more times.





4. After the third rinse, all the soap shoud be gone. Give them a good squeeze to take out the excess water.





5. Line dry them in indirect Sun.My washing machine is broken, I don't have any money, and I need some clean clothes?
I would ask a friend or relative if I could wash at their house. In exchange you could help them clean up around their house or fix them dinner or offer to babysit for them one night.
Besides hand washing or laundramette....


go to http://www.freecycle.org/ and find your local freecycle.





It's a place where people offer free stuff such as appliances they no longer need ect, and other people post ';wanteds';. Great for emergencies or temorary solutions.





It's pretty neat. I got once a complete Nintendo64 with games for my kids, who collect. And I've offered a sewing machine and a lawn mower on there.





Good luck
handwashing works fine! fill your tub with water and detergent swish it around a bit (ESPECIALLY IF ITS POWDER DETERGENT) add clothes swish some more let them sit for 10 min or so then individually scrub each article by hand.
you can handwash and then hang to dry. not sure cause if my machines are broken i just use someone else's i know or go to the laundrymat.
use a friend or relatives washer
Yes. Just fill your sink or tub with water and use your detergent or some dish-washing liquid. Let them soak and if you see dirty spots rub the material together to scrub it out. Rinse. Dry. And should be good to go!





Hope this helps!
laundry mat!get some quarters and some clothes and go to a laundry mat!its not that hard!


have fun!
HAND WASHING YOUR LAUNDRY WILL GET THEM CLEAN, BUT WILL REQUIRE A LOT OF HARD WORK. TO MAKE THINGS A LITTLE EASIER BE SURE TO PRE-SOAK STAINED CLOTHES FOR AT LEAST 15 MIN. YOU WILL HAVE TO TAKE YOUR TIME AND PUT A LOT OF ';ELBOW GREASE'; INTO IT. BE SURE TO FOCUS ON ONE ARTICLE OF CLOTHING AT THE TIME. FOR CLOTHES THAT ARE NOT DELICATE YOU CAN USE A SOFT BRISTLED BRUSH TO GET THE TOUGH SPOTS.MOST IMPORTANT, RINSE, RINSE, RINSE. REMEMBER YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO CLEAN YOUR CLOTHES USING DIRTY WATER.


MOST OF US HAVE BEEN IN THIS SITUATION AT SOME POINT OR ANOTHER IN OUR LIVES. I HOPE THINGS GET BETTER FOR YOU.
why dont u get 1 of your mates to come round and look at it 4 u that way it will be cheaper and exchange it for what they want 2 do e.g. take than out 4 dinner or help them tidy their house 4 them
Try a laundrymat??

Handwashing is good...be sure to rinse well...or use a friend's washing machine.
