Laundry was first introduced in ''Ambitions'', making it possible to use the washers and dryers from [[TheSims3.com|''The Sims 3 Store'']] and ''[[The Sims 3: Town Life Stuff|Town Life Stuff]]''. The laundry feature is also available in ''[[The Sims 3: University Life|University Life]]'', though there is no clothesline available. Since ''[[The Sims 3: World Adventures|World Adventures]]'' includes a decorative-only, non-functioning clothesline, confusion can arise if both ''World Adventures'' and ''University Life'' are installed, but ''Ambitions'' is not.
Laundry was first introduced in ''[[Ambitions]]. ''Further laundry appliances are available in [[TheSims3.com|''The Sims 3 Store'']] and ''[[The Sims 3: Town Life Stuff|Town Life Stuff]]''. The laundry feature is also available in ''[[The Sims 3: University Life|University Life]]'', though there is no clothesline available.


The Laundry System is entirely optional; if there are no laundry-related objects on a lot, the system will not be activated. To enable laundry on a lot, there must be either a washing machine or a laundry basket. Sims can visit the local [[Laundromat]] if their household can't afford the appliances or if the house they live doesn't have enough room for space. If there is no laundry basket in a room, Sims who change clothes in that room will often leave clothes on the floor.

Players can select a washing machine and ''Do Laundry'' which will do all the laundry on the lot and then either dry it in a dryer or hang it outside an a clothesline. Clotheslines save energy, and [[Eco-Friendly|eco-friendly]] Sims will always prefer a clothesline over a dryer. After that, Sims can enjoy fresh clean clothes, getting a positive moodlet and fresh clean sheets.

A common glitch is that, when a Sim or [[maid]] picks up laundry from the floor while and the washing machine is being used or the clothes basket is full, they will constantly drop the clothes and pick the clothes up again.

Another laundry set was released in late 2010. This set added the laundry system and its associated items for players who do not own ''Ambitions''.<ref>[http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/255/279765.page]</ref>
