It is NOT recommended to place your Camelbak pack in the washing machine. By doing so, you will void your warranty. However, if you absolutely have to use a washing machine, we suggest that you remove the reservoir and place the pack in a mesh bag (for delicate items) before placing it in your machine. This will prevent any straps from getting tangled up, stretched, or pulled off while inside the machine.
