    Thanks for the opinion. I guess I will hang them inside – don’t feel like going up the lift or spend my own $ buying cloth dryer & pay for electricity. I heard from my friends that they use a lot of electricity.

    Guess that steels my resolve to buy a house soon. Hang them where ever I like.

    Probably not. Most councils require clothes lines to be in the back yard. Very similar rationale to not hanging them on your front balcony.

    I’m on the top floor and our clothes lines are in the back yard. I would love to take the lift down to hang them out. But, seeing as we don’t have a lift, I just walk down three flights of stairs to do so.

    Whose $ would you like to spend buying a clothes dryer?

    The Vic Gov website says a clothes dryer costs about $1.90 per load @ $0.25/kWh. That might be an overestimate. I happen to be measuring my appliances’ electricity usage at the moment. Did a (light) load of drying for 1.7 kWh @ @0.25/kWh = $0.43.
