How to Use the Slide n’ Dry Pegless Clothesline: A Traveller's Best Friend

Whether you're hitting the road in your caravan, pitching a tent under the stars, setting sail on a cruise, or flying off on an overseas escape, one thing is guaranteed - you're going to have laundry to deal with. And let’s be honest, there’s nothing worse than soggy socks and no way to dry them!

That’s why we always pack our Slide n’ Dry Pegless Clothesline. Compact, peg-free, and proudly Australian made, it’s a favourite among our Adventure Awaits community and one of our all-time bestsellers.

So how does it work? Let us show you!


What's Included in Your Set

Each Slide n’ Dry Pegless Clothesline comes with:

  • Two bungee cords with secure hooks

  • UV-stabilised plastic slides that grip your clothes

Everything is lightweight, durable, and ready to tuck into your backpack, caravan drawer, or suitcase.


✨ How It Works

Instead of pegs, this clever system uses sliding grips that hold your clothes in place with a quick push. No fiddly clips, no stretched-out elastic, no sagging lines.

It’s a smarter way to dry on the go - and one you’ll quickly wonder how you ever lived without.


📍 Step-by-Step Setup Guide

1. Choose Two Secure Anchor Points

Depending on where you are, these could be:

  • Trees, poles, or roof racks (for camping)

  • Caravan awning arms, annex poles or even your bullbar

  • Cruise cabin towel rails, balcony railings, or shower areas

  • Hotel furniture, curtain rods, or bathroom hooks

2. Attach the Bungee Hooks

Use the hooks to fasten each end of the clothesline to your anchor points. The stretchy bungee cords make it easy to get a snug fit, even if your setup isn’t perfectly symmetrical.

3. Slide, Grip, Done!

Push the edge of your garment into one of the clips and slide it into place. That’s it! No pegs needed. The slide holds firm, even on heavier items like towels, wet swimmers or jeans.


🤝 Tips From Real Travellers

❌ Why Peg-Free is Better

We used to pack traditional clotheslines too - until we discovered the Slide n’ Dry. Here’s why we switched for good:

Elastic lines:

  • Stretch out and sag in the sun

  • Tangled mess in your bag

  • Pegs fall off, break, or get lost

Slide n’ Dry:

  • Peg-free and mess-free

  • Clips are secure and one-handed

  • UV-stabilised and long-lasting

  • Modular and expandable

And most importantly: it works, every single time.


Packing Tips

We recommend keeping one Slide n’ Dry in each of your travel setups:

  • 🚗 Caravan drawer

  • 🌄 Camping tub

  • ✈️ Cruise or travel suitcase

  • 🛂 Backpack or carry-on

It takes up barely any room and gives you a simple solution for drying gear on the go. You never know when you’ll need it  - but when you do, you’ll be so glad it’s there!
