Soaking vs Dry-pailing

The choice is yours...

To soak:

Half fill the bucket with water. Add a few drops of Tea Tree oil or nappy sanitiser. Refresh the water each day to avoid smells. Tip water down the loo when it comes to wash time & place bundle of nappies in the machine as normal.

To Dry-pail:

Rinse each nappy before placing it in the bucket ready for washing. The easiest way to rinse anything that has escaped the liner is to hold tight & flush! &/ Rinse under a tap as necessary.


Our preference is dry-pailing however both methods have their advantages & disadvantages. My advice is to try both ways & see what works for you.
