This is kind a long shot for being RV related, but I have a very large sleeping bag that needs to be washed. It is too big to go in my home clothes washer even though I have an extra large Kenmore. I tried our neighborhood laundry and their machines weren't any bigger. Do any of you have a suggestion for how to clean a big sleeping bag?

Hi!

You're on the right track-
The best way to clean a sleeping bag is to wash it.
You just need to find a laundromat with a big enough machine.
Look around a bit- Many 'mats have three sizes of washers, and the biggest (frontloader) will accommodate your bag...

You could try a local cleaners/laundry---they have large machines. Perhaps they would charge more than you would like.

Our local laundramat has huge machines---they eat quarters, lots of them. We use them for really big items as you are describing----just look around and make a few calls.
