How Often Should You Be Washing Your Sheets?
Once per week, the average
Due to your answers, we recommend that you wash your sheets once per week. But, of course, if you have allergies, tend to sweat in bed, or spend a lot of time in bed, you might want to consider washing your sheets more often.
Twice a week
Due to your answers, we recommend you wash your sheets twice per week. If you have pets that sleep with you regularly, it’s been suggested to wash your sheets every three to four days. Washing your sheets twice a week can also help you curb any issues if you experience allergies or have sensitive skin.
It depends on different factors
Due to your answers, we recommend washing your sheets at your discretion. Cleaning your sheets could require washing your sheets less often or more often, contingent upon how much time you spend sleeping in your bed that week.
