How to Wash Clothes While Camping & Traveling Off-Grid

When you’re out on the road—whether it’s a weeks-long RV trip or a backcountry backpacking trek—clean clothes don’t come easy. You can stuff your pack full of extra outfits and haul around all that extra weight, or you can burn half a day hunting down a laundromat in the nearest town. Neither feels like a good tradeoff when the whole point of being outside is to travel light and go farther.

One Light Bag, Three Jobs

There’s a simpler fix that’s been earning a quiet reputation among frequent travelers: our 10L portable travel wash bag. It weighs just 120 grams — barely noticeable in your pack — and it pulls triple duty on every journey.

As one user put it: “One 120 g bag, three jobs: a packable washer, a dry bag for river crossings, and — surprise — a hanging camp shower. Fill it with water, twist open the valve at the bottom, and take a shower. Pack less. Go farther.”

Clean Clothes, Anywhere You Roam

For laundry days on the trail, it couldn’t be simpler. Load your dirty clothes inside, add water and a bit of biodegradable soap, seal the bag tight, give it a few good rubs, rinse, and hang your clothes to dry.

You get clean, fresh clothes no matter where your journey takes you — no electricity, no sink, no detour into town required. It’s the kind of small, practical upgrade that makes multi-day trips feel far more comfortable, without adding bulk to your pack.

Built For Responsible Travel

What makes this bag such a smart pick for the outdoors goes beyond convenience. Its closed-washing design keeps all soapy water fully contained, so you can dispose of it responsibly, well away from rivers, streams, and natural water sources. No runoff, no mess, no impact on the ecosystems you’re there to enjoy.

It also cuts down on waste in a bigger way: being able to wash clothes on the go means you don’t need to pack piles of spare outfits. Less gear, lighter weight, and less textile waste over time.

And we believe gear should give back. 1% of every sale goes directly to conservation efforts, so every time you pack lighter and wash your clothes on the road, you’re also helping protect the wild places you love to visit.

More Than Just a Laundry Bag

The value doesn’t stop at clean clothes.

  • Use it as a dry bag to keep phones, clothes, and gear safe and dry during river crossings or rainy days.
  • Hang it up and use the bottom valve as a simple hanging camp shower for a quick refresh out in the backcountry.

One small item replaces three separate pieces of gear. That’s less clutter, less weight, and more room for the things that actually matter on your trip.


For us, this is exactly what self-sufficient travel is all about. You don’t need fancy campground amenities or town services to stay clean and comfortable. You don’t need to overpack to feel prepared. One small, smart piece of gear lets you take care of yourself on the road, leave a lighter footprint, and keep going farther.

It’s not flashy. It just works. And for anyone who spends more time on the trail than in laundromats, it’s an absolute essential.
