2 days in summer. 4 days in winter. That's typical but can change if I get it muddy or dirty while working. Wash myself but do like to have then professionally cleaned and pressed every so often.
Vest carrier washed once per week in the summer and every 2-3 weeks in the winter with half a cap (not half a cup!) of bleach and the hottest water I can. Need to kill the funk. |

Night shift 2-3, day shift 1, maybe 2. That's summer, winter is 2-3 for day or night. Assuming no fights, chases, or searching wooded/less developed areas, of course.
I don't care for dry cleaning anymore, I iron the sleeves for the crease. BUT we've switched to an "outer carrier" and the undershirts are a bit iffy to me for ironing. |

Generally only a day. In the summer you get sweaty; in the winter you get covered in grime from the road salt. I wash mine. If I had everything laundered and charged to my uniform allowance, I'd never have any money to order replacement gear

One day. Way to many nasty people out there. Wash, starch and iron my own stuff.....OCD is a terrible thing.

I may wear a flight suit up to a week depending on how many days I'm flying, but I don't wear it all day long, just while I'm airborne a few hours at a time. When I was a patrolman I got two days per uniform. I wash my flight suits myself. Back on patrol the city I worked for paid for dry cleaning so at least once a week I was dropping a load off.

I have enough uniforms to wear a fresh clean one each shift. Once all 5 have been worn I'll wash them myself then hang them back up.

Typically two days, unless it looked or smelled dirty. Pants/shirt would generally get a misting with Febreze after the first day. I douse my vest in that shit and lay it in front of a fan with the insides facing up to dry faster. In the "winter," I might wear a class B three days in a row but the polo shirts they gave us last fall always got washed after two.
Usually washed the carrier every few weeks, uniforms almost always get washed at the house except for my class A shirt. |

Depends on how dirty I get, especially since I got promoted and have to wear a white shirt.

One day only, our agency furnishes us with plenty (six sets in total). They are also contracted with a local dry cleaner so we can drop them off and pick them up each week on our off days. I always keep a spare in my locker too just in case of blood pathogens, sweat or it gets soiled in general EMS ways.
