How Deep Should a Laundry Sink Be?

There is no single best depth. It depends on what you need to fit in the laundry sink and how much room you have under the bench.

A deeper bowl is useful for soaking clothes, filling buckets, washing larger items, and keeping splashes more contained. A shallower bowl may suit a compact laundry where cabinet space or benchtop depth is limited.

Our laundry range includes compact, medium, large, and extra-large sink options. But the important measurement is the internal bowl depth, not just the overall sink dimensions. Check the product drawing for the exact model you are considering.

We'd also suggest confirming the depth with your cabinetmaker or plumber, particularly if there are drawers, shelves, appliances, or plumbing directly below the sink.

Browse laundry sinks and check each product specification before ordering.
