Default Laundry chute

Our renovation plans contain a new laundry room. Woohoo! Can't wait.

Anyway, it will be on the first floor, and I want a laundry chute from
the girls room on the second floor. Due to layout, this will not drop
vertically but will have a slight bend in it. Any advice on what, if
anything, to line it with? There seems to be kit for this but looks
like very heavy industrial stuff.

Any other general laundry room/chute advice?

Thanks, but I think things would stop at the bend if it was a collapsable
lining. I think I need a hard tube. (No schoolboy humour, please!)


Any bend would need to be gradual or *anything* will stop at it.
With polythene tube the tube adapts to the shape of the article as it passes
down.
Also, as others have pointed out, if it gets a little dirty you can just
pull it out and replace.
The only other thing I can think of that might do the trick is ventilation
duct...such as http://www.wad.co.uk/
