Top 5 Laundry Mistakes You Didn’t Know You Were Making

Even experienced laundry-doers can slip up sometimes. At Laundry Loft, we’ve seen these five common mistakes over and over:

  1. Overloading the washer: Clothes need room to circulate to get fully clean.
  2. Using too much detergent: More soap doesn’t mean cleaner clothes—it can leave residue.
  3. Ignoring care labels: Skipping this step can lead to shrinking or fabric damage.
  4. Leaving clothes in the dryer too long: This wears out fibers and can shrink items.
  5. Neglecting to clean out dryer lint traps: It’s a safety hazard and reduces efficiency.

Want to avoid these mistakes altogether? Stop by Laundry Loft and let us handle your wash & fold. You’ll never have to stress about laundry again!
