How to Wash Large Items — Comforters, Sleeping Bags & Duvets

Washing everyday clothes is easy. But when it comes to comforters, sleeping bags, and duvets, most home washers just aren’t big enough. That’s where laundromats like ours make the difference.

Why Home Washers Struggle?

Large items don’t spin properly in small machines, which means they stay damp and soapy. Over time, this can damage your bedding and your washer.

The Laundromat Advantage

At Port Moody Laundry, we have our Dexter Maxi washers designed for bulky loads. They:

  • Provide extra space so items wash and rinse evenly.

  • Use stronger spin cycles to remove more water.

  • Save you the frustration of running multiple loads.

Tips for Washing Bulky Items

  • Don’t overload the machine — let items move freely.

  • Use mild detergent.

  • Add an extra rinse if needed.

    Bring your large items to Port Moody Laundry — our extra-large washers make it simple.
