Pack a lightweight, mesh bag to put your dirty clothes in to transport them from your cabin to the ship's laundry room.
Don't worry about packing rolls of quarters in your luggage because you can get plenty of change on board the ship. Typically, washing machines on a cruise ship cost $1.00 a load, while the clothes dryers are $1.50 per hour.
Soap and the other items you need to do your laundry can also be purchased on the cruise ship.
To make sure you can find an empty washer and dryer to use, plan to do your laundry very early in the morning or late in the evening. Or, wait for a day when the cruise ship is in port.
Make sure that you retrieve all your clean clothing out of the washer and the dryer before you leave the laundry room. You don't want your laundry to end up in the Lost and Found.
