I do a load of masks weekly.

I change mine 2-3 a day.
More if I go into the house of a smoker.

Me, wife, and two kids all have about 10 masks. They get washed as soon as you get done with one in the laundry. We usually have a load of laundry everyday.

I have hundreds of three-ply surgical masks.
Why? Do you wear them 24 hours a day?

I've yet to wash mine.

I wear it maybe a total of 1 hour per week. Don't think its that dirty, honestly.

I don't wash. I have disposable ones. Wear a new one daily since it is required.

I have a plastic bucket in the kitchen that we throw our masks into each day when we are done with them. When I get a good number of masks in the bucket, I hand wash in Dawn and dry them overnight in a dehydrator (120 for 2 hrs).

We keep clean masks on a bureau next to the front door, so we can grab them on the way out...and we have a box of disposable masks in each car (in case someone forgets theirs).

Once you get a routine down, it isn't really a big deal.

I think the cloth masks are not nearly as good as the surgical masks, and I do not recommend them.

It totally depends on the cloth mask. The lab where I work has done particulate studies on hundreds of different mask configurations. One of the best Non-N95 we found was a homemade mask with a piece of bamboo paper towel sewn in between two pieces of cotton. One of the workers 80 year old mother made them for him, and he brought one in to see how effective they were.

This is how I am, only wear it for going into Kroger a time or two each week. I keep two masks on the 4 wheel drive shifter for when I have to run in somewhere that requires one

Yep.

Its time to ban masks due to litter like plastic bags. You hate the environment if you disagree.
