I live alone and wash them as I use them. it's just easier.

I usually clean them the next day, but when I get busy I've left them for weeks haha it happens, and I don't get many guests. I always clean for guests.

Overnight.

Absolutely never. I absolutely hate messes.

Depends on how long it takes to find a buyer for a house with a sink full of dirty dishes... 🙂

I wash once or twice a day. I don't like looking at dirty dishes and I'm too frugal to run the dishwasher unless I have a load of dishes, which I hardly ever do.

I don't. I rinse off my dishes immediately after use and put them directly in to the dishwasher. When the dish washer is full, I run it and then unload it as soon as possible. Dirty dishes in the sink are a pet peeve of mine.

No longer than 12 hours.

Mostly I want to wash immediately, so I try not to use many.

I wash them first thing in the morning.

I can't stand to have even one dirty dish in the sink.

I wash them in the morning after breakfast. Dry them and put them away.

If any get dirtied during the day when I see them they get washed.

After dinner, I wash them again.
I know this is more than a little obsessive, but it could be something far worse. lol

Nowadays, I wash them immediately or in the morning if it's too late.

I get them rinsed with hot water as soon as possiblr before residue hardens. Washing with detergent can then be delayed until next day.

I just can’t!

I wish I had a dishwasher. I do dishes at least once a day.

I do them after eating. Usually the pot/pan before while it's hot.
