  • Communal drying buildings placed apart but still in the vacinity of the blocks of flats they serve. Monitored by and part of the duties of a management company would be one way of dealing with the problem. No perhaps to complicated for the average agent to manage effectively !

    Or a washing line or 3 - even the most inept managing agent could manage that


    Or drape it all over the balconies of the flats, Benidorm style

    In some less than respectable areas you would nip back to your flat for a small G&T and a biscuit only to find your newly washed clothes nicked from the drier in the communal block upon your return. Then at night the oiks would vandalise the machines or take 'em away to sell for scrap.

    In any respectable area, you'd have a large G&T.


    Or two. ??


    Communal drying rooms remind me of military or university accommodation. If they are not secure, what about a clothes horse in front of the fire?

    Point of order Chris, in any respectable area, you'd have someone bring you the required large G&T, wouldn't you ?


    That said, you probably wouldn't be worrying about clothes drying - that's the staff's problem ?


    With the kind of hard of thinking personnel that can't de-fluff the dryer, I'd suggest that they also couldn't safely manage to dry kit on a clothes horse  - let alone draped over any accessible heating appliance
