Do you Think a Condo Association has the Rights to Throw Away Clothes Left In Washing

WonderWash... wow I'm having hard time believing it but I find it amazing. Just saw youtube videos and did some google search. I'm gonna order it cuz I don't have laundry/dryer machines at my apt so I bring my loads home but it's a huge inconvenience doing this way.

I'm glad to read about WonderWash! :thumb:
 
I agree with everyone on this.

The only solution is to sell your condo, if you are not happy with your condo's rules, etc or stay there, to follow their rules, Whatdidyousay. You need to think about that.

I remember, I used to live an apartment, with all deaf tenants years ago. One day, my good neighbor and I caught a deaf tenant throwing my "wet" clothes (with soap) on the floor and I told her it wasn't ready and that I found her unacceptable behavior doing this. Guess what, she swore at me and she started fighting with me. She pushed me and I fell but I wasn't hurt. My neighbor witnessed us and she called and reported it to the cops but she pushed her away, to prevent her calling the cops and my elderly neighbor fell (too) and hurt herself as she just came home from the hospital and she had a hip replacement surgery. Geez. Lucky, the phone line was on, that can track her down. They came and pulled this "crazy" deaf tenant out. I called and reported it to my landlord for the cops and he came and told this "crazy" deaf tenant (in front of the cops) that she needs to move immediately. So, she did.
My neighbor rushed to the hospital for a preuccation (sp?). No broken bones. Thank goodness!


I own a townhouse. I do have full-size washer/dryer set in a closet off my big kitchen. No basement! (frown)

That's weird. Washing machines are built to use bleach in the wash cycle. Aren't you allowed to wash your whites with bleach?

I do not made the crazy rules here!! I was surprised when i was told "No", but since we have some crazy rules I thought I better ask before doing this! I was shocked when I found out we could only fly the flay on holidays! One of my neighbor when out and brought a great big beautiful American flag after 9 11
happen and put up on his deck. I live on the same floor as him as I thought the flag looked nice. So when it was gone I was shocked to hear why!

I had already posted it is not a good time to try and sell. I did look a few years ago but I would have to downsize and I do not want to live in any smaller than what I have now. I looked at one place any you could not get a bed into bedroom as doorway was way too narrow! And it there was no windows in the bedroom! Some idiot had to made the blueprint for the place!! What kind of fool build a place where you can't fit a bed through a doorway!!
One of the crazy rules is that you can't have washing machine in your own unit! I think there could be one way to get around this rule is to have a DR. write a letter saying my balance is getting worst which is true and I should have washier in my unit for safety reasons!
 
A bedroom without a window is NOT a legal bedroom. It has to have, at the very least, an egress (fire-safety) window. Good thing you didn't buy it.

Because it's under pressure, you don't use a lot.

Dump the dirty water out and refill with rinse water. The container tips on the hinges of the stand.

I noticed in the picture of the newer one, it seems to have a drain hose on it.

Edit:

Youtube has examples of how to use it.

Can you wash sheets or heavy clothes like jeans in it , it looks very small on line?

no you won't be able to get it even if you have a doctor's note. You can't just buy laundry/dryer machines and then put it somewhere there. You need a vent hole, water pipe, etc.

You're just better off using laundromat service that cleans, folds, and delivers your clothes to you.

I checked one out and they wanted $25 just to wash a quilt! I will take the risk of doing my own washes. If my balance get really bad my daughter will help me.

well - the cost of using laundry/dryer (water and electricity bills) plus owning those two machines... $25 is still a lot cheaper unless you wash it often.
 
Thanks for the info, Reba. After the last hurricane, I'd like to have a back up laundry plan.

I read too fast, sorry...
I agree that it's hard to sell your place because of the bad economy.
How odd that your Master bedroom doesn't have windows? Do you have windows in the guest bedroom and in the bathroom as well?
How big is your condo unit? My townhouse contains 1,200 sq feet.
Are you living on the first floor? Below the basement, right?

It won't hurt to ask your doctor to write them a note.

Small loads but it uses no electricity or plumbing.

I got it after Hurricane Hugo. I never want to be caught in a long-term power outage without a way to do laundry.

Sounds like it should be a part of this new 'Green' fad that is going around. I'm really liking the reusable recycled aluminum water bottles. Aluminum can be recycled indefinitely. It's the most common metal found on earth, but it is also the most difficult to mine. Aluminum is more or less solidified electricity which makes it a very good conductor. To refine aluminum at a single refinery, the amount of electricity needed to do the job is equivalent to then entire power grid of Dayton, OH.

How do I know this stuff? I watched a special about it on Discovery channel a couple of years ago and I've always remembered these facts about aluminum.

I said I looked at place and the bedroom had no windows! I would NEVER buy a place that had no windows in a bedroom! My condo is 812 sq feet and when I looked at condo a few years ago they where smaller than mine and you could not eat in the kitchen! Some lady came to look at my condo some years and when she saw the size of it she said she could buy a house for the same price in Caroline! She did not realize houses and condos cost more in the East ! How could I live below the basement if I live on the first floor! If that was true I would be living underground!!

You have to shop around, you cant just look at 1 place.
I would never just settle for a place.

Im sure you could get the bed in if you flipped it on it side, otherwise you would probably be to tall to fit in the door.
The window thing is crazy.
Alot of places dont allow machines in the personal unit.
