Can the clotheslines be used outdoors?

Yes, you can use a portable clothesline outdoors! Many are specifically designed for indoor and outdoor drying, crafted with durable materials like galvanised steel, aluminium, and UV-resistant plastics to withstand harsh weather conditions. However long exposure to the harsh elements will take the toll on the products.

However, if it’s particularly windy, we recommend either bringing the clothesline indoors or securing it firmly with weights or sandbags to prevent it from tipping over.

Keep in mind that some smaller models, like the Brabantia hanging rack, is intended for indoor use only. Be sure to check the product details and user manual for guidance to ensure you’re using it correctly.

Do the Portable clotheslines require assembly?

The majority of the portable clotheslines require assembly, we have videos on how to do this for the Hills products in our How To section by clicking here.
