Fifth wheels equipped with washer/dryers

Traditionally, fifth wheel campers with washer and dryer units utilize a floorplan with the washer and dryer in the bathroom or bedroom area. However, that doesn’t mean a washer and dryer combo couldn’t be installed in an outdoor kitchen area with creative customization. RV washers and dryers come in several options:

  • Stackable washer/dryer - used when space is at a premium

  • Side-by-side units - sometimes used to balance out a large closet

  • All-in-one washer/dryer combo unit - these take longer to run a full cycle

  • Washer with a condenser dryer (also known as a ventless unit) - no vent required because the water is condensed through various channels, like the drain

Important to note: RVs that offer washer/dryer hookups come with one of the above configurations. If the type of washer/dryer is important to you, be sure to look closely at the floor plans to see what will work in the given floor plan.

Compact portable washers are also a low-budget option if no dryer is needed, though these are typically purchased separate from the RV.

Popular questions

How much does a washer and dryer in a fifth wheel cost?

This answer depends on what kind of unit will be purchased. Remember that a stackable or side-by-side washer and dryer are sold separately, while a combo is only one unit. A compact portable washer can cost as low as $150. On the other hand, a stackable or side-by-side washer can gravitate upward towards $2,000, with all-in-one RV washers and dryer combos somewhere in the middle. Budget, space, and lifestyle are factors that need to be considered in the cost.

Do fifth wheels come with a washer and dryer?

Yes and no. Many fifth wheels come readily available with washer and dryer hookups, while others already have the washer and dryer installed. Many RV sales centers will have options to add on washer and dryer combos with installation with the purchase of a fifth wheel RV with washer and dryer.

How does a fifth wheel camper with washer and dryer work?

Much like a traditional washer and dryer, a washer and dryer will wash and dry your laundry utilizing the same type of water and electrical hookups at home, but these hookups are in the RV. Typically, a dryer vent is not included and will need to be added if the dryer requires a vent.
