You can get several more days out of them if you turn them around (front & back) as well as the inside out trick.

We use a military surplus duffel bag. It is 36"X12"X12" with top opening. It stands in a corner and can be stuffed into camper compartments if necessary. We find that it takes up less space than some of the collapsible laundry baskets and is much sturdier.

(With our crowd, we actually use more than one...)

I use a collapsible mesh basket/hamper and I keep it in the shower cause we use the bath house. If we are there for more than 2 day I make a trip to the laundry area and I make sure I have plenty of quarters w/ me before leaving home.

We have a cloth hanging bag that just fits between the cabinet and shower, hung onto the side of the shower stall. Fills up quickly. When boondocking, I use panty liners and then hand wash second day. Not sure what DH does (probably skips the panty liners )

Our W/D uses a TON of water (so does our electric macerator toilet)
Makes boondocking a real challenge.

We have a 'stand-up' laundry bag that we keep in the shower/tub. It's easy to remove when we use the shower and we take the whole thing to the laundromat and use it to put the folded clothes in.

We have a built in clothes hamper in the bedroom. When it gets full the clothes goes into a plastic bag and stored in one of the bends. When that happens I know it's time to make a trip to the laundry mat. Oh, how I wish I had a wash machine and dryer in the motorhome.

Pop-up hamper that is stored in the bathtub. If that fills, I put those in a plastic bag that goes under the bed and start over....

I'll admit, when I camp, the same clothes (outer clothes) might be worn multiple times.....

Like another 5er, grungies go down the laundry chute to a hamper in the basement. Repeat until all clean clothes are used, then pull hamper and rewear the cleaner ones.
