Take them out. Our driers opened from the front so I just threw the clothes up top.

The wait time is a maximum of 10-15 mins, then pitch em somewhere nice and clean, like a table, etc

Well, i personally wouldn't like to have my stuff cleaned out by someone else, but i just don't know the "rules" of the laundry room. I usually do laundry at home, so it's not a problem.

I hate it when people decide to toss your clothes out on top of a dirty table or dryer, it's never happened to me, as I always try and get my clothes out of there once its done.

If I needed a dryer I just waited it out. I'm sure no one really likes a stranger handling their clothes.

lol, I am one of those peope that leaves their clothes in the washer/dryer forever. I don't mind people moving them at all, as long as they put them on a table/chair/something besides the floor. And as long as all my clothes are there when I get back ;).

LoL If you don't want noone handle your clothes, better learn to move them when they're done.

Other people need to do their laundry as well

Remove the clothes, but make sure you put them on a clean surface. Who knows why they haven't come back to get them, maybe something important or an emergency, or maybe they just innocently forgot.

Throw a few sticks of bubble gum in the dryer and pay the quarter to get it going again.

Oh also, I never move other peoples clothes, I'll just wait it out (which usually means coming back in a couple hours). What I hate is when there are no driers and there is someone taking their clothing out one piece at a time inorder to fold it. I wish they'd just get out of the way.

At least get clean a trash bag and put their clothes in there, then put it on the table/dryer/shelf/whatever. You wouldn't want some one else to mess with your clothes if you were a little bit late.

I had very bad experiences with people moving my clothes in the dorm. I always timed it to make sure I was down there within a few minutes before they finished, but people were so aggressive it didnt matter.

Once I was standing in the laundry room talking to a friend and as soon as my dryer finished some stupid b!tch started taking my stuff out. She didnt even wait for the dryer to stop spinning to open it up.

Another time I had take out my stuff and set it nicely on a table, or so I thought. I was fine with it until later I noticed my pillow cases were missing. I found them in the laundry room in a corner covered with dirt. I wanted blood, but I didnt know who did it.

common manners says they should have left their basket on the top of the machine....you just throw the clothes in and be done with it. If no basket on the top use the counter there.

Remote w/d facilities suck except sometimes you have no option to get them in the apartment.

Don't mess with the clothes though, that happened a lot up in Gainesville and one time others witnessed it and told the guys who did it....it made my laundry time go faster watching the ensuing fight of three roommates dragging some guy out into the hallway and beating the crap out of him....then their was police, his girlfriend crying and all this stuff :)

The guy took their clothes and put them in the laundry sink and poured their detergent and bleach into them. The sh!tty part was that there were about 10 washers and dryers and there were plenty available for him to use without being a prick. The clothes were in the washer he wanted to use.

He was trying to justify his actions to the cops. I don't know the outcome and who got arrested or not. It was probably a few hundred dollars in ruined clothes.

Put them on top of the dryer and put your clothes in the dryer.
