I was asked on Pal Talk recently how to use used to and would.
If we say something used to happen we are talking about repeated events and actions in the past, usually things that happened a long time ago and are now finished.
To express this we can use either used to or would.

- When I was young I used to play with my dolls. = When I was young I would play with my dolls.
Of course I no longer play with dolls!
- We used to go out a lot in the summer.
Implies that we no longer go out much.
If you want to talk about repeated states or habits in the past, you must use used to, you cannot use would : :
