Laundry Tips
Whether you are washing your clothes at the laundromat or at home these handy laundry tips can help you get your clothing and linens cleaner and make them last longer.Washing your laundry properly can make the difference between nice, clean fresh smelling clothing and wrinkled, shrunk or discolored clothing.
Follow the directions on Clothing labels:
It is important to follow the directions on clothing, bedding, towels, and other materials because each garment is made from different material and threads which may need different wash and dry settings. Some may even need to be washed by hand and not in a machine. Washing your clothes in the wrong temperature water or using the wrong thing to wash or dry clothing could cause it to shrink, fade or even fall apart.
Pre-treat stained items before washing. Do NOT put stained items in the dryer until the stain has been removed, as this will set the stain permanently.
