How Often Do You Wash Your Bed Sheets?  email this discussion to a friend?

I had a person tell me that they only wash their bed sheets once every two weeks. That surprised me. I thought everyone loved clean bed sheets. I was mine twice a week. I wash my blankets and comforters once a week.

I love the feel of freshly washed sheets next to my body when I go to bed. I think I sleep better on clean sheets and blankets.

We have allergies and I just cant imagine not keeping them clean.

I totally agree. I wash my sheets twice a week as well. I am like you I love the smell & feel of clean sheets & I just can't go to bed on sheets that have not been washed in a while.

You sound just like me. I hate dirty sheets. I consider sheets dirty if they have been slept on for a week without being cleaned. LOL

I don't sleep on my sheets lol. I sleep on top of the blanket that makes up my bedding. I have a washer in the kitchen and was often. I could wash the blanket today if company sits on it. Then if the kids put their shoes on it. I have to wash it again. I have severe allergies and it's not funny taking that shot.

LOL I seem to require the weight of the comforter and sheets before I can go to sleep. I hate allergies.

I have about 20 pairs of bed sheets and 10 different comforters and countless pillow cases so I only wash my sheets about once a month but I change my bed sheets every week. More depending on how much action my sheets are seeing that particular week.

Oh My Gosh! I wish I had that many sheets. You are so fortunate.

I try to wash all of my bedding at least once a week. I would love to wash them twice a week but I already do two and three loads of laundry each day and that uses alot of water and laundry detergent. Money is kind of tight these days here and the sewer and water bill is outragious. I love the fresh smell of a nice clean bed though. I wish I could do it more often.


myLot reputation of 99/100. villageanne (5891)   ranked 56 out of 762 in homemaker  5 years ago

My new HE washer only uses 13 gallon of water for a large load of clothes. I love it. It really cut down on our water, sewer and power bill. I was amazed.


myLot reputation of 94/100. stephcjh (27639)   ranked 67 out of 762 in homemaker  5 years ago

That is great. I am always doing laundry every day. Our utility bills kill us every month. I am always washing rugs and curtains also. I wish our water and sewer wasn't so expensive. We also wash our car and truck and fill up our pool in the summer and top it off if it becomes low. Always something LOL.

since our washer died and I have started going to the laundromat all the way in town, and I dislike going to the laundromat very much - I wash them every 2 weeks when I go... however, I change them more often. I am glad to have many sets of sheets in order to do this.

Once a week I do the sheets, but the blankets I only do every other week. I'm not sure why I got into that system but I love fresh sheets but don't want to wear out my blankets with washing too much.

It is actually common for families to change their bedsheets once a month and they consider themselves clean.

I change mine once a week and that's very good practice already. Unless your bed is in some construction site of course.:P

Hello dear village anne. As to how often the bed sheets are washed, it depends on how clean it is before it is cleaned in the automatic washing machine. It can be seen that you are a very clean-loving anne as to make the house nice and clean and tidy in the house. Please keep up, dear anne.

Neat and clean bed sheets make people sleep tight, so I clean them once a week. Im sure that no one will get a good dream on dirty sheets.
