Laundry Chute
Has anybody installed a laundry chute into the "basement" storage? If so... What did you use for a chute door? Tim

Last year, my wife finely got fed up, with stepping over the dirty cloth bag on her side of bed & asked what we could do to solve the problem. Can we build some type of hamper or trap door she asked.
I didnt say anything for a short while & then, YEAH, got an idea what we can do, real serious like.
There is nothing on the walls on either side of our bed, so we can just cut a hole in the wall, make a flush mount door with hinge at the bottom & just tip it in & drop the cloths in. She says. ok lets do that then, thanks sug, then after awhile she says, now if we do that wont the cloth just drop out onto the ground ?.
I said yeah, but at least you wont have to keep stepping over them every time you move around on your side of the bed.
For some reason she's not mentioned that idea again.
I'm still thinking about doing something & the drop into a compartment sounds like a good idea.

Neil, DW says the the easiest solution would be to move the clothes bag to your side of the bed. :B
Our DP had a pull out drawer in the bathroom that acts like a laundry chute but rather than drop the clothes into the basement it contains a laundry bag. When the bag is full I know that it's time for me to had to the laundromat.
