Wear coat home after work and hang it up.
I spend maybe a total of 15 minutes a day wearing it. It doesn't need washed very often.
(Side note: I'll wash my hoodies once a week. I'll wear one for 1-2 days, then it goes in the laundry.) But I typically don't take my hoodie off during the day in the winter.

I guess it depends on what we mean by 'coat.' Suit coat, barn coat, parka . . .
I don't really have to wear a suit coat, unless I go to training. And in Phoenix, unless it's raining one of the 8 days it rains every year, coats are just unnecessary.
But when I was in sales/marketing, back in STL, KC, CHI, Los Angeles, etc., I still don't remember actually washing a coat or having a suit coat cleaned that often. Maybe once every couple months at most? I didn't put the things on until I got to the office. Once in the office, I took it off and hung it. Probably only wore a suit coat about 10 minutes a day.
