TimeSaving Laundry Hacks For Busy Moms
With so many responsibilities to do around the house we understand youre looking for timesaving and moneysaving laundry hacks as a busy mom. Heres our lineup so you can get started today
1. Invest in One Laundry Hamper Per Child
Even if you are the mother of only one child investing in a laundry hamper specifically for each childs room will save you time in sorting out whose clothes belong to whom.
When you completely clean a load of one childs clothes all you have to do is take it to their room and fold andor hang the clothes accordingly. If the child is old enough he or she can put away their own laundry.
2. Use Mesh Laundry Bags
Mesh laundry bags are cheap at Walmart for smaller varieties. If you want various sizes try this 5 piece set of small medium and large laundry mesh bags on Amazon.
Over time you will save money on purchasing more socks to replace lost pairs using mesh laundry bags.
3. Use Cold Water
Using cold water to wash your clothes will save money overall. Using hot water you will not only possibly shrink your clothes or fade the colors but you will also be spending more money because of the hot water meter heating the water.
Youll save money by not having to purchase more clothes to replace shrunken or faded ones that happen from using hot water. Save on your water bill by opting to wash your clothes in cold water more often.
4. Just Throw it in the Drawer
Especially when your kids have a lot of clothes opt not to fold them. More than likely when your kids go to pick out their outfits the shirts and pants will just get bunched up anyway. Save yourself some time and headache by categorizing each drawer and just tossing in the clean clothes after they are washed.
One drawer can be for shirts. Have another drawer can be for jeans leggings and sweat pants. The bottom drawer can be for pajamas.
5. Customize Your Laundry Experience
Think about how you can customize your laundry area and overall routine. Stay stocked up on your laundry detergent and fabric softener so that you do not have to run to the store at the last minute before laundry day.
If you wash your laundry in a laundromat have a small kit ready with your laundry supplies. Having a system in place and being prepared will make the trip much more enjoyable.
