In winter it seems that laundry just multiplies! Yes, undershirts, warmers, multiple socks, the list goes on and on!
At our home, we narrowed down a few rules to make laundry time a lot easier!
Here are six tips to make laundry time easier:
Enlist the whole family to pitch in
At our house we all bring our clothes down from different hampers, put the pockets and socks right-side-out, to make the laundry task a lot easier!
Choose your laundry detergent carefully
The right laundry detergent will not only preserve your clothes but also clean them a lot easier than others. I’ve come to learn that price matters when it comes to choosing the right brand to do the job!
Appliances are crucial to the process
With LG’s TwinWash system you get the best of both worlds. For small loads that can’t wait, there is the LG SideKick pedestal washer. You can even use it simultaneously while you do a bigger load up top on your LG Front load washer. Isn’t that great?
Not only do these washers have mega capacity to tackle any size load, they are energy efficient while giving you the best cleaning performance. No wonder more households have chosen LG laundry over other brands!
Take care of your appliances
It’s no good spending all that money on the best appliances if you’re not going to take care of them. Make sure to remove coins and tissues from pockets to avoid damaging the drum of the washing machine or clogging the pipes, and take time to empty the lint filter in the tumble dryer after every use.
Occasionally, your appliances will need a deep clean to keep them running smoothly. Run your washing machine on a hot wash with a cleaner placed in the drawer to flush out any gunk, and use a service providing Dryer Vent Repair in Cary, NC or a similar service near you to fix any issue with your tumble dryer before it becomes dangerous. Tumble dryers can easily overheat if neglected, so it’s important to stay on top of maintenance to avoid damage.
It takes a village
After my husband places the clothes in the washing machine and then in the dryer, he folds the clothes once they’re dried and calls us to put our clothes away, making the whole process a lot easier. If your kids are old enough, teach them how to do their washing themselves. As they get older, they’ll probably want to do their own washing anyway, so the earlier they learn the better.
Have a system
We have laundry days, which makes our system easier to kind of budget our clothing to make sure we wear them knowing when they will be washed, unless there is a game for my son or he got all his school uniforms dirty. Having laundry days and a system makes the whole process easier for all involved.

I admit, laundry is my least favorite chore and probably because I am so picky about how it is done. I tend to do it all myself and the only part my family helps with is collecting the dirty clothes.
I need a helper around the house just for the laundry. My kid is still too small lol
Thanks for the tips! I always have my children help, it shows them how to do it and gets thing done quicker.
Great tips. My girls are big enough to handle some house chores and laundry is one of them. It’s a great relief for me to be off laundry duty for a while.
We have been trying the “the whole family helps” and the kids have been dividing the clothes by colors, working so far.
I am probably the worst at laundry! No organization and no picking what goes where at what temperature! But it is just my clothes so it’s kinda fine
We just got front loaders from Best Buy and I love them! Having a good machine in itself makes laundry so much easier!
Been traveling for a year now and I do laundry by myself. I agree that we have to choose the right detergent for our clothes. These tips are really great.
My kids are still young but it’s the proper time to start teaching them small tasks like putting out the clothes in the hampers. Your tip will be really helpful. Thank you.
Laundry can be such a pain in the butt. These are some really great tips that will certainly make doing laundry less irritating!
Couldn’t agree on this. I hope parents will read this. Indeed having a system at home is the right thing to do in order to make everything in place. On my own, I separate my clothes depending on its color and if its a working/office clothes or for occasion.
It’s easier to have a routine or a system to follow when you’re doing the laundry! Loving all the tips that you shared here and I’m dreaming of getting that LG twin washer!
I appreciate this info. I do laundry on my own but these tips are super useful.
These are really awesome hacks! I will definitely keep these in mind and try these!
The LG’s TwinWash system looks nice. I would want a washing machine like this too.
Having a system in place has made doing laundry so much easier for me. I have different baskets for the kids to sort their dirty laundry into. The right laundry soap is essential to getting your clothes nice and clean.
I find myself doing laundry everyday. It’s just so much. These are great tips I’m going to implement soon.
I don’t mind doing the laundry since there’s only two of us in the house. But I can imagine how moms deal with a large number of clothes and it’s definitely not fun at all. I think having a twin washer helps make the job easier!
Laundry pods really do make things a lot easier. Plus, you get the perfect amount of detergent every time~
Getting the whole family involved is key! That washing machine looks so cool, having a small area for sweaty workout clothes would be great for my hubby and me.
These are some great tips, I have to be really careful about the washing liquid and conditioner I use as both myself and the other half seem to be sensitive to different ones.
I wish I had machines that were that nice. My dryer is the last appliance left from the house previous owners but it is still kicking as I write this. Will think of LG when we are ready for the next ones.
Very awesome tips to make sure your laundry is hassle free. To be honest I do enjoy laundry day, I’m not sure why. But what I’m sure about is that with the right appliances, it’s a chore that you won’t hate so much! Love that LG has this twinwasher!
These look like incredible appliances! I actually need to get new ones. Ours are old. I’ll have to check out Best Buy.
I need a system in place! We usually are swimming through laundry that we need to get done because no one wants to do it. I will have to try a couple of these tips to see if they help us.
Having a system is key. I actually have three different bins designated for whites, darks, and colors. My family knows to sort their stuff on penalty of death.
I have a system in place and I am even getting my kids in on the laundry action now, too! Love all your tips.
