In my earlier days as a freight dog we stayed in hotels that didn't have washing machines/Laundry. My most memorable wash job was on a layover in SFO where the hotel the company put us in ( by accident) had rooms with hot tubs. I didn't have the opportunity to wash my stuff for a week or so (I was on an18 day rotation) so after stealing a few bottles of shampoo from the maid I filled up the hot tub with water and added the three (or six) bottles of shampoo and LET HER RIP!!! It was wild!! Lots of SUDDS!!. The only problem was, my socks and underwear kept getting caught in the intake!! Washing socks and underwear in the sink has always been normal ops when hot tubs are not available. To dry, just hang the cloths over all the available lamps in the room and turn them on of course and also on the heater. The blow dryer also works well in a pinch.
