EDIT: I've received enough help to get a washing machine now and will have it on Tuesday. Thanks for the suggestions though.

I'm not having much luck with my mutual aid request for a new washing machine. I'm finding it impossible to wash my clothes by hand. I have very little use of my left arm, as well as issues with my hands. I'm finding i just can't wring the clothes out by hand, which means i can't get the laundry disinfectant I have to use, out properly. They're being left itchy and smelly. Does anyone have any good tips on dealing with this?

Honestly I think the best bet would be to go to local dumps or recycling places and see if you can talk with people there, explain your situation, and that when a washing machine comes in, you might get it. People do get rid of old working washing machines.
