We use them every day so why not choose a beautiful one? \u003cbr\u003eWhether you're looking for the rustic charm of a wicker laundry basket or the added convenience of a laundry basket with handles, we have the perfect solution to elevate your laundry routine. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWicker washing baskets add a touch of natural elegance to your space. Crafted from high-quality materials and built to withstand daily use, our laundry baskets combine functionality with timeless design, making them essential additions to any home. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat to look for in a laundry basket. \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen choosing the right laundry basket for you and your home, there are several factors to consider.\u003cbr\u003eQuality: Look for a laundry basket made from high-quality wicker or rattan materials. Opt for tightly woven baskets with sturdy construction to ensure durability and longevity. All of our baskets have been sourced from trusted suppliers ensuring our washing baskets are always of a trusted quality. \u003cbr\u003eAesthetics: Consider the look and feel of the basket to ensure it complements your home decor. Rattan laundry baskets are ideal for a more refined style. If you’re looking for something with more of a relaxed feel then perhaps a wicker laundry basket is a better fit for you. Both rattan and wicker are well suited for many home interior styles, from relaxed coastal to more traditionally styled homes.\u003cbr\u003eSize and Capacity: Think about the size and capacity of the laundry basket. What do you need from this basket? Is it only going to be used to transport one load of laundry from the machine to the washing line or are you looking for something to be used as a laundry hamper? Choose a basket large enough to hold your typical laundry load but not so large that it overwhelms the room.\u003cbr\u003eHandles: Laundry baskets with handles are ideal for easy transportation to and from the washing machine. Opt for sturdy handles that are securely attached or oven into to the basket for added convenience and durability.\u003cbr\u003eA Lid: Consider whether you prefer a laundry basket with a lid or an open-top design. \u003cbr\u003eA basket with a lid helps conceal dirty laundry and contain odours, while an open-top design allows for easy access and ventilation. \u003cbr\u003eStability: Choose a laundry basket with a stable base to prevent tipping or wobbling when filled with laundry. Opt for baskets with wide, flat bottoms or reinforced bases for added stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy choose a rattan laundry basket?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRattan has a sleek, high-end look compared to its more rustic wicker counterpart. The natural aesthetic of rattan is very popular in homes with a coastal-inspired interior. If you’re looking to add a little of the Hamptons Style to your laundry then a rattan basket is the one for you. Available in both brown and whitewash to suit your personal style. \u003cbr\u003eThe woven design allows for ample ventilation, helping to prevent musty odours and mildew from developing on damp clothes. \u003cbr\u003eAs rattan is lightweight these baskets are easy to move around, especially our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/pepperwhites.com.au\/products\/white-laundry-basket\"\u003elaundry baskets with handles\u003c\/a\u003e!

This helps prevent dirt from building up and keeps the basket looking clean and fresh.\u003cbr\u003eWicker is susceptible to damage from moisture, so it's important to keep wicker laundry baskets dry at all times. Avoid placing wet items directly into the basket, and keep the basket away from areas of high humidity. If you want to keep your basket in a bathroom or laundry periodically rotate and air out your baskets to allow it to breathe and prevent moisture buildup. If possible, remove the baskets from the laundry room and place them in a well-ventilated area overnight to dry completely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere to buy wicker laundry baskets\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur laundry baskets are available to buy right here online or you can shop with us in store.

These stackable Milford rectangular baskets are an ideal storage solution anywhere in the home. Perfect for toy storage in the play room or kids bedroom, an extra blanket in the spare bedroom or throws in the living room.
These baskets have been created in partnership with talented fair trade artisans from around the world, using time honoured traditional techniques passed down through generations. This basket has been handcrafted in Indonesia.
Made from Kubu rattan, a sustainable species of cane that grows abundantly and wild in many areas of South East Asia. After harvesting, it is sun dried and then soaked in a natural water bath, which makes it pliable for weaving and produces its distinctive, warm colour.
Made by hand using natural materials, each basket is unique. It is common for hand crafted products to vary slightly in size, so to be safe please allow a variance size of 10% when making a decision for your space.
