Laundry Tips

Common Laundry tips

We are always looking for ways to make your laundry experience easier.

  • Sort your laundry

    Sort your laundry into different piles based on colors, fabric types, and washing instructions. Separating darks, lights, whites, delicates, and heavily soiled items can prevent color bleeding and damage to delicate fabrics.

  • Check washing instructions

    Read the care labels on your clothes to determine the appropriate washing instructions. Follow them to ensure that you're using the correct water temperature, wash cycle, and drying method for each garment.

  • Avoid overloading the washing machine

    Overloading the washing machine can result in poor cleaning and rinsing performance. Leave enough space for clothes to move freely during the wash cycle to ensure they are cleaned properly.

  • Use the right amount of detergent:

    Use the appropriate amount of detergent for each load. Too much detergent can result in residue buildup, while too little may not effectively clean your clothes. Follow the detergent manufacturer's instructions or use a detergent measuring cup to ensure you're using the right amount.

  • Use cold water when possible

    Cold water is generally suitable for most clothes and can help save energy and prevent color fading. Reserve hot water for heavily soiled items or when washing towels and bedding.

  • Don't forget to check pockets:

    Check all pockets of your clothes for any loose items like coins, pens, or tissues. These items can cause damage to your clothes and the washing machine.

  • Be mindful of special care items

    Pay extra attention to delicate fabrics, such as silk, lace, and cashmere, which may require special care. Hand wash or use gentle cycles for these items, and avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach.

  • Dry clothes properly

    Follow the care label instructions for drying your clothes. Some garments may need to be air-dried or hung, while others can be tumble-dried. Avoid over-drying as it can cause shrinkage or damage to the fabric.
