Your washing machine can clean more than just clothes. Safely wash items like shower curtains, stuffed toys, reusable grocery bags, silicone kitchen tools, pet collars and leashes, car floor mats, small area rugs, baseball caps, yoga mats, and dishcloths. Remember to check care labels, balance loads, and use gentle cycles when unsure.

Fabric softeners offer benefits like softness, fragrance, and reduced static, but they can also leave residue, decrease absorbency, irritate skin, and harm the environment. When choosing a fabric softener for a laundromat, consider the types of fabrics washed, customer preferences, cost-effectiveness, and environmental impact.

Laundry frequency depends on the item and its use. Underwear and socks should be washed after each use, while casual clothes and jeans can be worn a few times before washing. Bed linens and towels should be washed more frequently. Treat stains promptly, air dry when possible, and consider wearing some items twice to save time and money.
