I have a big teddy bear that I want to clean because is dirty and I don't want to get rid of it?

This is best done in one of the larger more industrial front loader washers at the laundramat. Use a mild soap formula like woolite. The front loaders do not have the aggitators and will ensure that your bear might not need re-stitching. They also can wash larger items like large comforters and carpets.

Too big for washer machine right?
Buy or rent or borrow a clean machine/ wet vac type- mild detergent
suck away moisture sun dry... lil bit water/detergent goes long way apply with empty spray bottle if needed...
try small out of the way spot first for nasty effects- say bottom(bleeding- my bear!)

Go to the laundry mat and use a Big Boy, use the gentle cycle on warm- as long as he is not filled with bean's..If he is filled with bean's he may need to go to the dry cleaners. Don't put teddy in the dryer let him air dry .

put it in a mesh laundry bag - or a big pillowcase will do in a pinch, just make sure it's closed with a safety pin or two - and toss it in on the gentle cycle with plenty of soap :) Always worked for my grandma (washing the bears, not somebody washing the grandma lol).

Your local Laundromat should have one of those big tumble washers. Can't remember the correct name but they work great for washing big items.

my suggestion would be: put the bear in a white pillowcase and tie it up. wash it on a gentle cycle in cool water and hang it out to dry.

Arm & Hammer baking soda. Sprinkle it on and let it set for 15 minutes. Then you can use the vac to get it off.

Hi,
Go to the laundromat and put in the biggest washer.
