Lighten Your Load This Summer!

Fluff and Fold Raleigh NC: Summer Laundry Tips!

With summer just around the corner, our fluff and fold in Raleigh NC knows, the last thing we all want to think about is time spent cleaning. We’d much rather be outdoors swimming, hiking, soaking up the sun. Chances are though, if you’re spending a great deal of time outdoors, especially swimming, your home can be overrun with extra laundry in no time at all. Keeping the extra towels, changes of clothes, and more clean can become a full time job.

Thankfully there are ways to set up a functional laundry system that will help you through all the extra laundry that summer brings!

According to houzz.com, you should “First, get ready for summer with a seasonal swap. Take a day to go through every drawer, closet and cupboard, pulling out things that are no longer seasonally appropriate. Stow off-season clothes and gear in an out-of-the-way spot and dig out the beach towels, swimsuits and sarongs. Often after a season in storage, towels and other items end up a little musty; if so, throw everything in the wash before using. If you come across any items with tears or stains, now is the time to toss them out.”

In addition, there are several other ways to keep from laundering your life away this summer! Below, you’ll find out how!

Minimize laundry loads. Don’t let that laundry pile up into a mountain of overwhelming heights. Do a little here and there, while you’re letting the kids rest during the day or at night after you’ve put them to bed. Letting laundry build up can discourage your from doing it altogether. Using smaller baskets to store dirty laundry can help keep the mountain at bay.  They fill quicker, prompting you to do laundry more frequently.

Stop wet or dirty clothing before they enter the house. A peg rail or several sturdy hooks nailed to the exterior of your home’s back door will make it easy for the kids to hang up their wet towels or dirty play clothes, before coming into the house!

Keep fresh towels and suits in a designated spot. If you have a pool at your house, or even a neighborhood pool that you and your kids frequent during summer, be sure to add a second set of hooks inside. Hang fresh, clean towels on them so the kids know which towels are ready to use!
