The Back-to-School Laundry Playbook

The school year brings new schedules, homework, and after-school activities. It also brings a mountain of laundry. Here’s your game plan for staying ahead of it.

The Challenge: More Laundry, Less Time

Once school starts, the laundry baskets seem to fill up instantly. You're dealing with daily school clothes, grass-stained sports uniforms, and maybe even a few art project mishaps. For busy parents, finding the time to wash, dry, and fold it all can feel impossible.

Strategy 1: Master the Stain Game

From grass to cafeteria spills, school clothes take a beating. The key is to pre-treat stains as soon as possible. Keep a good stain remover on hand and teach older kids how to apply it themselves when they get home. This small step makes a huge difference on laundry day.

Strategy 2: The "One-Load" Rule

Don't let small piles become overwhelming. Try to do one small load of laundry from start to finish each day. It's a manageable habit that prevents the weekend laundry marathon and ensures there's always a clean uniform ready for Monday morning.

The Winning Play: Take Laundry Off Your List

The smartest strategy of all? Let someone else handle it. Imagine a school week where you don't have to think about laundry once. That's what we do.
