My family has been hanging out the laundry on a retractable washing line for years. Our washing dries very quickly on a sunny day – and they’re so simple to put up and use. If you live in State where local rules mean you can use them – then I’d definitely recommend buying one.
Retractable clothes lines are cheap to buy, easy to install and simple to use if State or Housing Association rules allow. They will dry your clothes and laundry in no time at all on a hot day or when the sun is shining.
Let’s discover more about retractable washing lines.
Are Retractable Clothes Lines Dangerous?
If used correctly, a retractable clothes line shouldn’t be a danger. What you don’t want, is the line whipping at speed across your yard when you unhook it.
So, when it’s time to put the line away, release it from the locking ring/hook/button. Then, unhook it at the other end but don’t let go. Holding the line by the hook end, walk it slowly back towards the casing. Do not let go until it’s almost fully retracted.
Also, never leave a line out without laundry on it. It can be very tricky to spot an empty line on a bright, sunny day – and imagine the kids running full-tilt towards it… The beauty of a retractable line is that it can be out away in moment, making it a safer option than a fixed one.
Retractable clothes lines are a great investment if you live in an area where State legislation or Housing Association rules mean you’re allowed to hang washing outside.
They are both easy to put up and use, and your washing will dry out in no time on a sunny day.
