Back-to-School Laundry Tips for Busy Parents

🧺 Back-to-School Laundry Tips for Busy Parents

Clean Right Laundromat – Gainesville, GA

As the school year kicks into high gear, parents everywhere are juggling school supplies, after-school activities, and packed lunch prep—not to mention laundry piles that never seem to end. At Clean Right Laundromat, we understand how chaotic the back-to-school season can be. That’s why we’ve put together these helpful laundry tips to help busy parents stay on top of the mess.

1. Create a Weekly Laundry Schedule

Instead of letting laundry stack up, designate specific days for washing different loads—like uniforms on Sunday, towels on Wednesday, and bedding on Friday. Having a routine can make laundry feel more manageable and less overwhelming.

2. Pre-Sort with Bins

Set up labeled bins in your laundry room (or hallway) for lights, darks, and colors. Teach your kids to toss their clothes into the right bins—it’s a small habit that saves a lot of time on laundry day.

3. Treat Stains ASAP

Back-to-school often means grass stains, food spills, and art project disasters. Keep a stain stick or spray in your mudroom or laundry area to treat spots as soon as possible. Don’t let those spaghetti sauce stains set in!

4. Simplify with Laundry Pickup and Delivery

Let us take a load off your shoulders—literally. Clean Right Laundromat offers free pickup and delivery laundry service, with 24- to 48-hour turnaround. It’s the perfect time-saver for busy families trying to balance it all.

5. Label Kids’ Clothing

If you’ve got multiple children—or your child misplaces jackets like it’s their job—use name labels or a permanent marker on tags. This makes it easy to sort and return items that may get lost at school or daycare.

6. Choose Durable, Easy-Wash Fabrics

When buying new school clothes, look for items that can hold up to frequent washing. Avoid anything labeled "hand wash only" or "dry clean only" unless it’s absolutely necessary.

7. Teach Kids Laundry Basics

Even younger children can learn how to fold, sort, or put away their clothes. Getting them involved teaches responsibility and lightens your load at the same time.
