Anyway, maybe we should start a thread about all the uses for a laundry sink.

I scrub mine out real good, fill it with cold water, and immerse my Thanksgiving turkey to defrost it.
Actually, it's spelled wort but pronounced "wert". It's unfermented beer.

We didn't have a utility sink at all when we first moved into our resale - so after we mopped the floor there was no place to empty the bucket of dirty water but down the kitchen sink...we also have dogs and I didn't really like washing out their bowls in the kitchen sink either, so we added a sink to our garage and I am grateful every day it is there!

During the design process of our Lily, we had the utility sink moved to the garage right outside of the door from the garage to the house. We had a utility closet built in the space. We ended up with a $65 credit. Nice closet for my upright vac, mops, ironing board, step stool and extra laundry hanging pole. The shelf at the top is great to store rags or really big bottles of Tide. I hung a bar across the back wall to hold the broom, mops etc. Hung an over the door hanger to hang a cloth bag which holds all my plastic bags from shopping. We put the wine/beverage center in the cafe/nook next to the pantry. I have the washer and dryer with the pedestals and I find the storage in the pedestals and the cabinets above the washer and dryer to be ample space for laundry stuff, light bulbs, batteries and vases and other stuff.
Fyi, I am 5/3 and can reach the stuff on the bottom shelf of the cabinets over the washer dryer, but must use a step stool for anything higher.

My Design Team Meeting was February 28th, 29th and March 3rd of this year. The price of the storage cabinet was less than the laundry sink. They didn't give me a credit. The price of my home was lowered by the difference in the price.
