You can save water and electricity using a wash board. Or use the creek and pound the clothes on large flat stones to get those hard to clean stains out. Plus you get a real workout when done right. You’ll thank me later.

You can save water and electricity using the Australian Outback method.

Load the wash, detergent and appropriate amount of water into a 55 gallon plastic drum that is situated over the rear axle of your truck/suv......drive around for a day or so over rough country roads and your clothes will be washed.

For a rinse...repeat a couple of times with fresh water.

For drying...hang out on clothes line in the sun.
