The three-hamper system
- Lights: whites and pale colors
- Darks: black, navy, denim, deep colors
- Towels and heavy items
Then check fabric
Delicates, wool and items with trims go in a separate mesh bag or are hand-washed.
And soil level
Sports kit and very dirty items get their own load or a pre-soak.
Sort for folding too
When everyday tops and T-shirts come out together, folding goes faster. They are exactly the garments FOLDORA folds, one at a time, while you put away towels.
Read the label
Care labels tell you temperature, drying and ironing limits. When in doubt, wash cooler.
