This topic came up on the other forum-Adult Incon on Yahoo-and it has been real quiet here so I thought I'd carry it over. For those wearing cloth diapers, have you tried a diaper service (if they are available in your area) and what are your thoughts about convenience and cost compared to home laundering of your diapers. |

With all the snow you got out there Joe how would a diaper service every make a delivery? LOL! My diaper service is UPS which only does half the job. I gotta haul them out. I still cannot bring myself to cloth. I'd like to try but I just get the feeling it would be wasted money for me. |

During the past year, because of some washer problems, I checked with the local diaper service (which we had even used with both our kids). I was informed that they don't do adult diapers, even if I supplied the diapers themselves. I was a bit surprised, but that was that. Gimwet |

A couple of years ago I checked with our local Tidy Diaper Company. They offered an adult all in one diaper. I think it was the Priva brand. You bought them and then they charged about $1.25 per wash. It was not worth the cost. They don't offer the service any more--I think they are worried their base business would be concerned about adult infectious disease. Sign of the times-up until 8-10 years ago there were three diaper service companies in town. Now there is only one and they even sell disposables. |

I can't find one in my neck of the woods, and I'm not really sure I would try one. I like having control on what type cloth diaper I wear along with my plastic pants. Also, good to see Steve M. post on this subject. Let's hear more from you! ............Paul Martin |

I used a diaper service when I lived near Charlottesville. I provided the diapers and they laundered the diapers for about $.25 a diaper. They had a drop off bin outside their business where I could leave the soiled diapers if they were closed and I would pick up the clean ones. I prefered transporting the diapers myself, because I did not want to advertise my incontinence to my neighbors. Unfortunately I moved too far away for work and have not been able to find a similar arrangement close to where I live now. This was a very positive experience because the diapers were very clean, soft, and treated to prevent odor. They provided the waterproof pail liners and a diaper pail with deordorizer tablets. |
