FAQ
Industry standard recommends “dry-pailing” for used cloth nappies. A dry pail is a term used for an open aired bucket storage system which allows maximum aeration of your items until machine-wash day. Preferably a strong reusable plastic option allowing you to regularly also wash your dry-pail alongside your nappies.
See MoreWill my dry-pail smell?
We recommend storing your dry pail in a highly ventilated and dry space, this will minimise any smells. We don’t find any lingering smells and it is not a common problem. You may like to drop some essential oils in the base compartment of your Strucket where needed.
It is not recommended to store your soiled items for longer than 2-3 days before machine washing.
Do I soak my reusables in the dry-pail?
In days gone by, cloth terry squares used to be soaked and bleached, sitting in buckets awaiting their main wash.
This practice is no longer supported nor encouraged for modern cloth nappies, as our machines will do the brunt of the hard work for us!
Dry-pailing avoids your nappy storage becoming a breeding ground for bacteria, so the drier the storage solution - the better.
Do I need a dry-pail liner?
Using dry-pail-liners, also known as large wet-bags, are not advised as a storage solution for your nappies. Wet bags are for temporary storage of soiled items for upwards of 24 hours (Eg Day outings, overnight stays, day care etc). It is not advised to hold a bulk amount of soiling and damp items in a sealed environment for longer periods.
