Before Washing
Prepare Wash Load
Empty Pockets and Cuffs
Make sure all pockets are empty and turn them
inside out. One bobby pin, metal or plastic toy, nail
or sharp object in a load can catch laundry, cause
tears and plug the pump. Facial tissue left in a
pocket will produce extreme “lint”. A crayon or
lipstick in a wash load may cause stains that
cannot be removed. Roll down cuffs and shake out
grass, sand and gravel.
Mend Rips and Tears
Little holes can become bigger in the washer. Mend
holes and tears before placing garments in the
washer.
Close Zipper and Fasten Hooks
These can catch on garments in a wash load and
tear them. Tie belts and sashes so they won’t wind
around clothes.
Put Small Items in Bag
Small items such as baby socks may get stuck
around the door. Put them inside a mesh garment
bag.
Check For Colorfastness
Squeeze a portion of garment in warm or hot sudsy
water. If the color bleeds or runs, wash the item
separately in cold water.
Sort Items
Different items use different wash cycles and
temperatures. Always follow the manufacturer’s
care label. Proper sorting is easy if you follow a few
guidelines:
1.
Sort by Color:
Separate items into loads of
whites, darks, lights and non-
colorfast.
2.
Sort by Fabric and Construction
:
Separate items into loads of
cottons/linens, permanent press,
synthetics/blends/poly knits, and
delicates.
3.
Sort by Temperature:
Separate items into loads
that can be washed in cold,
warm or hot water.
4.
Sort by Type and Amount of Soil:
Heavily soiled clothes will need extra
treatment. Lightly soiled clothes can become
dingy if washed with heavily soiled items.
5.
Sort Lint “Shedders” From Lint “Receivers”:
Some fabrics attract lint and should not be
washed with lint-shedding loads. Lint
shedders are cottons, terry towels, chenille
bedspreads, rugs and clothes that have been
heavily bleached.
Lint receivers are synthetics, permanent or
durable press, knits (including socks),
corduroy, and other smooth fabrics.
Pretreat
Pretreat shirt collars and cuffs with a pretreat
product or liquid detergent when placing them in
the washer. Before washing, treat special stains
individually.
