Basically no energy cost (technically not correct but it’s really whatever)
Free humidifying during the dry winters
Fairly satisfying thing to do while listening to a podcast
The primary downside is that it’s no fun to do it when it rains, neither indoors or outdoors, but as long as you time your laundry well enough, it’s all good.
It should be possible to hang your clothes indoors still, I guess. Outdoors as well I’ve been told, when it’s a bit below freezing, but I’ll admit that I’ve never actually tried that.
At home I hang most of the clothes, but we where at a short trip and we had some wet towels and swimgear, so de decided to just do one full laundry with most of our wet and dirty clothes. The first duration before I even started the cycle was that it should be done at about 16:10 it was actually done more than an hour later.
I much prefer hang drying.

Nothing like spring/summer outdoor fresh dried laundry
It’s -11°F where I am today, my family still lives in Jamaica and I envy their ability to hang their clothes so much.

I do all the time and it works.
What’s your usual strategy? Any maximum outdoor temperature you aim for, how long do you aim to hang the clothes, etc?
