Packing up a house takes massive amounts of time and physical energy. It exhausts you long before you even leave the old driveway.
Typical households easily produce several loads a week and moving day only pushes that volume significantly higher. A standard household washing machine can make tackling bulky loads time-consuming, leaving bags of laundry waiting for attention while you try to unpack.
Need a trip to a laundromat equipped with high-capacity machines? That can help you clear the backlog more efficiently, leaving you more time to settle in.
Clear Your Laundry Backlog in Fewer Loads
A small home machine usually stretches laundry day across an entire afternoon. You spend hours waiting while swapping loads and hanging things out to dry.
A quick visit to a commercial laundry completely changes this frustrating dynamic. You speed up the task tremendously because multiple heavy loads run side by side instead of one after another. This can save time compared with washing each load separately at home.
Thick doonas and blankets also dry reasonably quickly inside commercial tumble dryers. Using multiple machines can help you tackle larger loads in fewer cycles, although total washing and drying times vary.
Using commercial machines can free up valuable time, allowing you to focus on assembling furniture, unpacking boxes and settling into your new home.
Give Blankets and Bedding a Proper Clean
The very first night in a new place feels much better when the bed is perfectly clean. You want to slide into fresh sheets, knowing at least one job is tackled, without smelling stale dust. Blankets and doonas that have been sitting in storage often need more than just a quick domestic wash cycle.
Dedicated pet machines keep loose hair and dander far away from the rest of the family bedding. Choose a suitable wash cycle according to each item’s care label.
Our 36 kg Magnum washer takes the equivalent of several laundry baskets. The larger drum provides more room for bulky bedding and multiple items, subject to load limits. Fresh bedding ready to put straight onto the bed is one less job waiting for you when you finally stop for the night.
Keep Laundry Under Control While Unpacking
Moving is physical work. Handing the dirty washing over or dropping it off removes one more task from the list.
- Scheduling and booking a pickup through The Busy Bubbles App helps if you prefer not to transport bags yourself.
- Dropping bags at the Wallacia lockers and collecting them later works perfectly if that fits your schedule better
- Dedicated wash, dry and fold options return items ready to put away so they go straight into wardrobes instead of sitting in another pile

A: Bulky items like doonas and heavy curtains may be too large for standard household washing machines. The Busy Bubbles offers commercial washers with larger drums, giving suitable items more room to move during washing. Always check the care labels before laundering.
