She hung the items up on the line – with people calling her hack “genius”

In the clip, she was seen using a giant bag for life, putting one of the handles around her neck.

She then put the inside the bag, before taking out one at a time and hanging on the line.

“Using a massive shopping bag like this so you don't have to constantly bend down,” Charly wrote over the top of the video.

“Does anyone else ! Anything to save my rubbish back!” she added in the caption.

Charly shared alongside hashtags including #ihatelaundry and #lifehack.

And it seems other people have the same issue, as her TikTok has now been watched almost 250,000 times.

The comments section was immediately filled with people praising Charly for sharing the hack, with many angry they'd never thought of it themselves.

“Whaaaat?! I'm gonna start doing this, faaaab idea, thanks girl!” one wrote.

“I might start doing this. I'm forever going dizzy because I'm always bending down,” another added.

“Ok this is actually genius,” a third commented.

“NOOOOOOO STOP IT,” someone else said.

“The way this has changed my life. I use the big Home Bargains ones but the neck… MIND BLOWN.”

“I love you for this hack!” another wrote.

“This is genius,” someone else said.

“I love this! I have mobility issues and I am obscenely tall so this is amazing!” another added.

“Na. This is actually genius!! I’m 34 weeks pregnant and bending is not for me haha!” someone else praised.

While others admitted that they do the same thing to save their backs when hanging out the wet washing.

“I've always used bags for life as laundry bags,” one wrote.

“Great minds think alike.”

“Yessss this is my laundry basket I hang it on my shoulder,” another added.

“I'm glad I'm not the only one.”

“Ladies, PLEASE get yourself a laundry trolley,” a third commented.

“Lakeland do one.

“It’s a bit spenny, but it is such a life and back saver.

“Never felt adult joy like it!”
