Just because I live out of a van doesn’t mean I have a lot of time on my hands. Today I was forced to do laundry because I needed clean sheets. So I drove well out of my way to the best laundromat I have found, North Slope Launderette in Tacoma. While I was waiting for the wash, I read and replied to KZfaq comments. Then we got a propane fill at McClendon’s Hardware in Tacoma.
At this point, the day was almost over, so I drove over to what might be my favorite bridge, the Tacoma Narrows Bridge and explain why I like this bridge so much.

My name is Scott and in 2015, I bought a Ram ProMaster City to live in. Even though I didn’t know much about RV’s and campervans, I set about building the van out as a minivan camper. And in April of 2016, I moved into my minivan full time.
Over the years, I’ve learned you don’t need to have a big skill set to build your own campervan. And that living as a minimalist and utilizing solar power can be a less expensive way to live. I’ve also learned that a minivan can be a very comfortable home.

laundromat terrors! i agree finding a good one is not easy today. i just did a light comforter and a med. spent $7.50 wash the big and $4.50 wash the small. first i did the sniff test to see if i could smell mold inside the washer or the soap area. i could but just a little. all the machines needed a wipe down. to dry was $3.00 n it took 48 mins for each comforter. you could no longer clean out the lint trap because they took away the paper towels that used to be by the sink. so maybe that was my problem but i swear my 2 comforters smell worse now then when i put them in the machines. it's depressing. also had to pick hair off and it wasn't my hair!🙄 lots of dirty looking people in there. hey i lived in a vehicle for 4 years so when i say dirty looking people, i don't mean presentable to your best ability but haven't been able to shower in a week. i mean dirty. i don't know. do they recycle the water?

Interesting! Wool t-shirt! I'm a big fan of wool (and other natural fibers). Plus, yes, you could always hand-wash the T and let it air dry. People in America are ridiculously fastidious about wearing a garment once and having to wash it. I'm not saying you should go about dirty. Heck no! Say No to BO! But it's usually not necessary to wash a garment after ONE wearing! New to your channel, and enjoying your mellow, easy-going videos!

I some times have rinsed out my clothing in the laundromat deep sink or take my own plastic basin. Then i dry them in the machines. I know people often beach clothing in the machines and even dye garments and bed linens I saw a woman washing horse blankets at a laundromat. Be careful. Its very annoying and inconsiderate what people do sometimes. But when i wash my out my apparrel using my own tub i dont have to worry about what the last person did. Living on the road has many challenges. Getting laundry done is one of them. Lesrn to love what you do and find your own best system. Live your videos. Ykur do bonest and transparent. Good quality.

I don't do laundry outside the home, but when I moved a few years ago, I purchased a set of packing/moving bags from Amazon... They are blue and super strong with a zipper... I'd suggest you try those because you could have put your bedding in it, along with your clothes... PLUS, it's easy to wipe clean and folds away perfectly. I actually use mine to store blankets and my son's old toys now. You can get a set or four for under $25. Also, I get it about the laundromats... We moved in September and didn't bring our old set... The new prices of washers and dryers shocked me so I decided to wait until Black Friday sales. I found a laundromat that I loved and would only go there. It was clean, quiet, and had good machines. I kinda miss going - something about that laundromat smell and getting it all done at once! 😊

Hey there Scott. Nice look in on your routine. I can relate to a lot of your video, since I live a similar lifestyle. So, some short comments on what I just watched…😉 First, I thought your laundromat would have a bowling alley, the way you were hyping it. LOL! Cleanliness is important. 👍 I like to clean the truck camper (used to be a van) while washing/drying my clothes. Bed sheets are a pain to put on in these small conversions. 😕 I wear cotton shirts for best comfort and polyester blend (air wick) for outdoor exercise, as the perspiration dries quickly (but not as comfortable). I have used U-Haul mostly, for propane fills, and I would agree that they have a hard time filling them without purging them first. I carry two 5 lb propane bottles and have found I get 10 weeks of use per bottle. That is from cooking only (coffee, breakfast, dinner) as I rarely use heat, due to location. Thanks for sharing. 👍

The ventilation seems to keep the clothes from fermenting like they would in a solid bag.
