This post offers 14 laundry bags for teens and college students.
Every dresser drawer is open, clothes are scattered all over the floor and there’s a nasty smell wafting through the air when you enter their bedroom or dorm.
There are 40 hangers in their closet (all empty, of course), wet towels lying on their bed and the clothes that are on the floor are a combination of clean clothes they tried on and didn’t want to hang back up, clothes they wore once (for ten minutes until they changed their mind) and clothes that have been worn so many times they’re beginning to take on a life of their own.
Getting your teen or college kid to actually put dirty laundry where it belongs – in the laundry bag or hamper – is a challenge every parent faces. To make it (at least somewhat) easier for your kid to “adult,” we’ve rounded up the best laundry totes, bags, and hampers around.
Put a little fun and humor into laundry with these 14 fun laundry bags for teens and college students!
