Winter Washing Tips From Our Raleigh Laundromat Can Help Brighten Your Day!
With cold weather here, it’s hard to wash your laundry with a spring in your step. There aren’t many days you can hang laundry to dry in the sun and there’s no sunlight bursting in the laundry room window to help cheer you while you carry on your chores. Thankfully there are a few ways to reinvent your laundry routines so that you can sprinkle in a bit of cheer in with your next load of clothes or towels. Our Raleigh Laundromat shows us how, here:
Reduce Your Load
Of course reducing the amount of laundry is obviously a day to day goal. But, oftentimes we wash clothing that isn’t exactly dirty. Children tend to try on several different outfits and throw the discarded ones on the floor; spouses use a towel once and throw it in the hamper. It’s very likely that most of those clothes or towels could be used again. Try sifting through the clothes on the floor or getting your children a second, non-dirty clothes basket to help to lessen laundry. Also, be sure to ask your spouse and children to reuse their towels at least once. Invest in a towel rack with several hooks, rather than one with a bar. Making the towels easier to hang can help keep them from ending up on the counter or floor.
Follow the Weather
As we said above, there aren’t many nice, sunny days in winter that are made for hanging clothes and towels to dry in the breeze. If you’re a bit more strategic with laundry day though, you can take advantage of the sunny, breezy days. Though it’s probably still cold outside, you’ll at least have the sun warming and drying your wash!
Also, if you want to spend nice days outdoors, plan your laundry days around rain and snow. Keeping a check on the weather will allow you to plan your laundry days in advance so that you can enjoy the rare nice, sunny days for leisure time.
Laundry chores are never one’s favorite thing to do. It is something that must be done, though.
