My most recent loss was TWO LOADS in the dryer, a combination of clothing and towels/linens. I stood by the machines during the wash load, but had to run to the bathroom during the dry cycle. A quick piss was enough time for them to take every stitch of my clothing and bath towels. We have no cameras where I live.

How about people literally have jobs and can’t stay to watch their clothes all day when they have no days off? I have two jobs and sure I’m not the only one. I got from one job to the next almost everyday. So in my down time I (which is like an hour) I drop off some clothes to the laundry center as I can’t afford a washer and dryer right now. How about people don’t steal all of the clothes that I have.

I left an expensive king flat sheet in the dryer overnight. My mistake. Someone in my building of 12 residents took it. It has been one month. I left signs in the laundry room. No response. I as m shocked. This is an affluent high rent area. My neighbors are petty and hate children (grandchildren ). Now, these snot ass people are thieves too. I have lived in many areas. Never, has my laundry been stolen.Sickening.

In no way does that justify STEALING someone else's clothes. Throw them on the floor, throw them in the trash bin if you are that angry. Thieves are worse than inconsideration or inconvenience. Does someone have the right to steal your car if you block someone's driveway? Or would it just get towed and force you to do what's required to get your car back. When someone steals laundry, that person has lost an expensive chunk of their needed wardrobe. They can't go pay a fine and get it back.

A surveillance camera and Laundry room rules is what I would recommend. I know its outside of the budget right now but definitely something to look in to since not only it would help with this issue, but will also make residents feel safe doing laundry late night.

Thank you Christine for sharing this info.
