October Laundry Tips: A Fresh Start for Fall

Fall Laundry

October in North Carolina—leaves are turning, the air is crisp, and the holidays are right around the corner! With all the excitement, it's easy to let laundry pile up. But don't worry, Laundry Unlimited is here to help you stay on top of your laundry game this fall. We're sharing some simple tips to refresh your routine and keep your clothes looking their best, whether you're in Charlotte, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, or High Point.

1. Tackle the Seasonal Switch

As the weather cools down, it's time to pack away those summer clothes and bring out your favorite fall attire. This is a great opportunity to declutter your wardrobe. Donate clothes you no longer wear to create space and simplify your laundry routine.

2. Show Your Summer Clothes Some Love

Before you store your summer clothes, give them the care they deserve to ensure they're in top shape for next year.

  • Wash everything: Even clothes worn only once might have lingering sweat or sunscreen that can damage the fabric over time.
  • Check for stains: Treat any stains before storing, as they can set in and become permanent.
  • Store properly: Fold clothes neatly and store them in breathable containers to prevent wrinkles and musty odors.

3. Conquer Fall Fabric Care

Fall brings unique laundry challenges with its variety of fabrics. Let's keep your clothes looking their best:

  • Sweaters: Hand wash or use the gentle cycle on your machine. Dry flat to maintain their shape.
  • Denim: Wash jeans inside out in cold water to preserve their color. Avoid over-drying, which can lead to shrinkage and stiffness.
  • Flannel: Wash in warm water with similar colors. Tumble dry on low or hang to dry to prevent wrinkles.

4. Stay Ahead of the Laundry Game

Fall often brings busier schedules. With school back in session and holiday preparations underway, laundry can easily pile up. Try to wash clothes more often to avoid feeling overwhelmed.
