About Washboards

Washboards have been used for hundreds of years as an effective way to get clothes fresh and clean. Whether you are off the grid, looking for an eco-friendly alternative, or preparing for a long trip into the wilderness, washboards are a great alternative. Designed with built-in ridges and grooves, washboards use friction against the ridges to scrub away dirt and grime. With some water, soap, and a little bit of elbow grease you can have clean clothes in no time using a washboard. If you are looking to stay off the grid, washboards can be a great alternative to traditional electric washing machines. You can even keep a washboard in your emergency shelter. Washboards provide a traditional cleaning experience if you’re spending an extended period of time in the wilderness. These metal and glass washboards can also come in handy if your machine washer is temporarily out of order and you need to wash clothes in the interim. With a selection of different sized portable washboards for sale at your fingertips, you’re sure to find one that suits you best.
