From head diameters to line capacity and installation choices, you’ll find a clothesline that not only fits queen sheets with ease but also makes laundry day faster, simpler, and more efficient..  TABLE OF CONTENTS

📏 Why Queen Sheets Need the Right Clothesline

Standard queen size sheets measure approximately 245 x 274 cm. To dry these properly on a rotary head, your clothesline needs:

• A head diameter of at least 3.6m

• Sufficient line space (47–58m is ideal)

• Generous hanging space to prevent overlapping

• Sturdy arms that won’t sag under weight

Choosing the right rotary model ensures your laundry dries faster, neater, and stays cleaner — especially when drying in a shaded location under a Norfolk Pine, or out in the open breeze.

Folding Rotary Clotheslines: A Modern Day Alternative

Unlike fixed head rotary's, folding rotary clotheslines can be folded down and even removed from the ground, giving you back your outdoor space when it’s not in use.

• Foldable rotary head for easy storage

• Ground sockets for relocatable use

• Galvanised and powder coated frames to protect against corrosion

• Compact box-style packaging for convenient delivery

• Some even come equipped with sock hanger attachments and pegs

From small backyards to larger medium sized family homes, we’ve got you covered.
