How often to wash bedding

A simple rhythm.

4 min read

Sweat, skin cells, oils and dust build up in bedding quickly.

A simple rhythm

  • Sheets and pillowcases: weekly, or every two weeks
  • Duvet cover: every one to two weeks
  • Mattress protector: about monthly
  • Pillows: every few months, if the label allows
  • Duvet or comforter: a few times a year

Tip

Two sets of sheets per bed make changing day easier.
