So much laundry to wash

LOL. I am so envious. How do you find the time for everything you do? Two loads, whites and colors, are usually the way the clothes get seperated unless there are lots of towels. Then three loads.

I am very particular in washing our clothes. There has to be a schedule. A schedule where all colored clothes must be the first one to be washed. Then i do the white clothes. This will avoid any mini to big discoloration/stain in the colored dress due to bleach. In our country we need to hang it on to dry our clothes and that means it will be there for the rest of the day.

when I used to take the laundry over to my mom's to wash, I separated by color/drying time. Generally only 2 loads because most of my towels and jeans could be done together with things like dark shirts and the like, while the white/lights could be done together - and I'd pull the more delicate things out before the sheets and stuff were done - didn't dry my bras at all NOW, I don't wear bras and figure that if my socks or undies get a little discolored - nobody'll know but ME!

When I first started doing laundry I was taught towels and undies in one load, and colors in another. Other whites were washed with undies as well, so I think actually towels were most of the time their own separate load. That was when I lived with my grandparents. Prior to that, when living with my mother, she just told me to put it in altogether, or if I did she didn't care that I did... So that means, everything was washed together, but I don't think we ever used bleach there. Now things are separated differently, and to be honest I am not quite sure lol. I've had times where I didn't do my own laundry for awhile, but now that My husband and I are doing our own laundry again, we usually don't have enough for a load, so we end up mixing towels with colors, though we don't end up doing our whites as MIL needs them for a load... My husband is the only one that works right now, I am hoping to start working the first of November, so then I'll have more clothes to be washed, but right now it's mostly his clothes that do get washed...

Hi there! Just did the laundry few hours ago. Actually, I sort my kids clothes. I finished it first then followed by others clothes including mine. Of course, I sort the white ones from the colored ones. But when it comes to some clothes that are really expensive like blouses, I handwash them. Hehe!

The very thoughts of doing laundry wears me out. I save it up for 2 weeks because the facilities at my apartment complex are outdoors and there are so many steps to get up and down. When I do it, I have a full load of bedding -- whites -- rugs -- darks -- and two of colors, light and delicate, and then a bit brighter. I am also very particular about how I wash and dry my clothes. The most delicate ones, or sweaters that might "pill," I do by hand. The others, I follow the label instructions! I always zip the zippers, and many things, I wash wrong side out. I read years ago that it prevents the agitator from "streaking" darker colors, and they pill less and get a lot less lint and wear and tear when I wash things that way.

i usually do a load of laundry pretty much every day so then i am not in the same boat as you. i hate when ihave to do a ton of laundry, its so tiring. i am not as picky as you are but i do wash my jeans seperate.

I'm not that picky. I have a socks & undies load, dark / poly load, kids load, cotton adult, towels & sheets load.
