Additional tips for the best laundry care: Drop us a line, and we’ll gladly add it to our growing list!

    1. Sort your laundry: Separate your clothes by color, fabric type, and level of dirtiness to prevent color bleeding and achieve optimal cleaning results.
    2. Read care labels: Check the care labels on your garments to understand the recommended washing instructions, including water temperature, cycle type, and any special considerations.
    1. Pre-treat stains: Address stains promptly by pre-treating them with stain remover or a gentle detergent. Gently rub the stain, let it sit for a few minutes, and then wash as usual.
    1. Use the right amount of detergent: Follow the manufacturer’s guidelines to determine the appropriate amount of detergent based on your load size. Too much can leave residue, while using too little may result in insufficient cleaning.
    1. Choose water temperature wisely: Opt for cold water for delicate or brightly colored items to prevent shrinking or color fading. Use warm or hot water for white or heavily soiled clothes.
    2. Consider fabric softeners: Add fabric softeners or dryer sheets to reduce static electricity, soften fabrics, and impart a pleasant scent to your laundry.
    3. Avoid overloading the washing machine: To ensure thorough cleaning, avoid cramming too many clothes into the washing machine. Overloading can lead to inadequate cleaning and strain on the device.
    4. Properly dry your clothes: Follow the care instructions for drying your clothes. Some garments may require air drying, while others can be tumble-dried on low or high-heat settings.
    5. Iron with care: Iron your clothes using the appropriate temperature setting for each fabric type to prevent damage. For delicate fabrics, use a pressing cloth as a protective barrier.
    6. Promptly fold or hang clothes: Remove your clothes from the dryer or drying rack as soon as they are dry to prevent wrinkles. Fold or hang them neatly to maintain their shape and appearance.

Additional tips for using laundromats:

    1. Plan your visit strategically: Choose non-peak hours to avoid long waits and ensure washing machines and dryers are available.
    2. Bring your supplies: Carry your laundry detergent, fabric softener, dryer sheets, and any other preferred laundry products to the laundromat for convenience and personal preference.
    3. Temperature and load size settings can result in better cleaning quality, time, and cost savings. Many people use the same setting on the machines set by the previous user, and they may have needed cold water. For your white clothes, you will need hot water.

Remember to always refer to the specific instructions provided by garment manufacturers and the guidelines posted at the laundromat for optimal laundry care.
