Caring for your hammock:
Hand Washing
- Place the hammock into a sink or bathtub by holding both of the end loops.
- Immerse the hammock in warm water and slowly add a mild detergent, but keep the end loops out of the water. Do not use bleach.
- Using your hands, massage the hammock as well as the end strings until the hammock is clean.
- After washing, rinse the hammock with clean water.
- Finally, wring the water from the hammock and hang it in a place to dry. Make sure the hammock is spread out for thorough drying.
Machine Washing
- Bring both end loops together by folding the hammock in half.
- Tie the end strings together with a piece of string just below the loops and 3/4 of the way towards the bed of the hammock.
- This will prevent the strings from getting tangled from the agitation and spinning in a washing machine.
- Once the end strings are tied, place the hammock in a pillow case and tie the pillow case closed.
- Use mild detergent with your wash cycle and use cold water for your rinse and spin cycle. Do not use bleach.
- After the rinse cycle, carefully remove the hammock from the pillow case and untie the strings.
- Hang up your hammock to dry, make sure the hammock is spread out for thorough drying.
Storage
- Before putting your hammock into storage, make sure it is completely dry and clean.
- Tie the end strings together with a piece of string just below the loops and 3/4 of the way towards the bed of the hammock.
- This will prevent the strings from getting tangled.
- Place the hammock into a weather resistant fabric bag that can breathe.
- The other option is to hang your hammock from a hook in your garage that is located in a dry and low traffic area. This will help keep the hammock from being soiled.
- It is also important to protect your hammock from various critters that might think your hammock material is food or an ideal nesting site.
- If you see any mold or mildew appear on your hammock, wash with a mild detergent. Use your own judgment whether a spot clean is.
