Washer and Dryer Pedestal

This is my first build. I found the plans for it almost perfect but made a couple of adjustments.

FYI- if you do the 5 crossboards on both platforms, you will need to buy 3 more 2 x 4's to get the cuts you need for everything.

I also added posts in the center to ensure that there is no future sagging.

To get it into my closet sized laundry room that is right off of my kitchen, we painted it before assembling it inside the house. We attached the posts to the bottom and installed that first, then added the top. The clearance in my space would not allow it to be completely assembled before we put it in.

The extra posts don't allow for 3 baskets, but it does still allow for two. I'm also thinking of doing some pull out drawers or something in the bottom.

We painted with metallic silver spray paint and it worked great.
