National Laundry Day for the year 2024 is celebrated/observed on Saturday, April 15th. There are until the next observance.

Even though National Laundry Day and Tax Day are typically celebrated on the same day, keep these two chores separate. Anyone who has ever retrieved a $20 note from a washing machine understands why. Having said that, we normally dislike washing laundry. However, we will be overjoyed when it is completed. Consider clean clothes, new linens, and that distinct fresh laundry aroma. Do you have a favorite fragrance for dryer sheets? We here at National Today love lavender, which leads us to the following interesting fact: The term “laundry” derives from the Middle English “lavendry,” which comes from the Old French word “lavanderie” or “lavandier,” which means “someone who washes linen.” Here’s more on America’s spotless approach to National Laundry Day.
