My husband puts the laundry in the washer and dryer, I fold and he puts it away. That way we both keep each other in check. Also he needs the hampers for the new load.
Only wash clothes when they are dirty/smell (except underwear). Wear shirts and pants a couple times before you wash them.
I recently used my work from home day to do a few loads of laundry. I counted folding and putting away as part of my clean and tidy up to stop me having a big pile of clean clothes hanging around until I want to wear something!
Don’t wash once a week.Wash 2 times in a week like every 3rd day and last day ot the week. Washing many clothes in one time makes you feel tired and take a lot of time.
Set up in your laundry daily routine. So you know what type of laundry you have to do every day or every other day. It helps me so well
I wish! the only thing that helps me is to overstock on the laundry bins, 1 in every room and one on each floor just for towels, then a 6 bin sorter in the laundry room itself with coloured labels on each bin so everyone knows where each item goes when they bring their laundry down
I put in a load of wash first thing when I wake up, and by the time I am ready to leave the house, it can go into the dryer and the next load goes into the wash to go into the dryer as soon as I get home. That way, I have 2 loads done and out of the way without hardly thinking about it.
I personally find it easier to keep up with laundry by keeping all dirty clothes in one area. Once the basket is full wash them. I also add vinegar to keep my clothes soft. One cup to a full load.
If you have kids, stop folding. It’s time consuming, and they’ll just mess it up anyways. Although teaching them to commit to seeing a task through to the end is important, it’s also important to teach them to prioritize time spent with family over the little things in life.
If you live alone, put the load that racks up the quickest in the washing machine instead of the basket. This makes it faster to accomplish as you go along and you don’t have to sort it down the line. Just put your detergent and clean!
