When I was a kid, my mom set up a nylon line between two large trees and carried our wet clothes outside to dry on the line. When she got her first dryer, I noticed a change in our laundry, the clothes didn't smell as "fresh" and they seemed to wear out quicker adding to the expense of buying new clothes more often.
While air drying can have it's disadvantages...Rain, pollen or kids running through the hanging laundry and pulling it down...The fact remains that you are saving on your power bills with the one time investment of the line and clothespins.
What does air drying advantages? Your clothing will last longer. Your energy bills will lower. No maintenance cost such as cleaning dryer vents or repairing a broken machine. You may even learn to live without a conventional dryer and make a few bucks by selling your existing dryer.
