I must love you guys because today, I’m airing out all my dirty laundry! Just kidding…kind of. 

In all seriousness, now more than ever, it is so important to keep our laundry clean. Today, I’m going to share my laundry routine, my favorite detergent by ARM & HAMMER™, and 3 quick tips to help you create your own simple daily laundry routine.

Because let’s face it – we are a large family with even bigger laundry needs!  It’s pretty much a full-time job keeping all of our clothing, bedding, and towels laundered. With a growing baby, 2 busy boy toddlers, a preteen, and a husband who is often outdoors working, that equals a lot to keep clean!   So, do you think I have time for a crazy detailed laundry routine? Ha! Ain’t nobody got time for that! Using these 3 tips, you can also be well on your way to a laundry routine that makes your life cleaner and easier every day.

Step 1 – Do a load of laundry every day!

Yes, it’s true! I wash at least one load of laundry every day. Most days, I wash 2! I have found that this is the key to keeping our laundry under control as a family of 6. That may seem like a ton, but keeping our loads smaller and more frequent helps cut down on the laundry pile-up. Before I implemented my daily laundry system, I was doing laundry once a week on Sunday and it was an all-day affair. I HATED it and used to dread Sundays! I often get overwhelmed with household tasks, so doing a load of laundry every day helps make it much more manageable.

And since I average 1-2 loads per day, the price of detergent can quickly add up! I always make sure that I use a detergent that is both powerful and affordable. At my local Publix, I stock up on ARM & HAMMER™ Clean & Simple™ Liquid Laundry Detergent. ARM & HAMMER™ offers high-quality products at value pricing.

Step 2 – Wash everything together!

This is an age-old debate, but I’m a firm believer that, there is no need to separate loads by fabric and color. I use ARM & HAMMER Clean & Simple Liquid Laundry Detergent​ to launder the entire family’s clothing, towels, and beddings at the same time. ARM & HAMMER Clean & Simple offers a powerful clean, with 6 essential ingredients and water. 

We don’t even have laundry baskets in our bedrooms. Every dirty article of clothing from the day gets tossed directly into the communal laundry basket or straight into the washing machine. After dinner and bath time (or when full – whichever comes first) I start the load and then wash and dry it before my husband and I head to bed. Then each morning, I fold and put the laundry away. Now, the washing machine is free for the day’s dirty laundry to go straight in!

I also wash my loads with cold water. This helps prevent shrinkage and also minimizes color bleeding. The only time I use hot water is when laundering bedding since it only gets washed about once a week. 

Step 3 – Use a quality detergent!

All detergent isn’t created equal! So it is important to use a quality detergent, and for me that means it needs to be both powerful and budget-friendly. Thankfully ARM & HAMMER Clean & Simple ​fits the bill. It’s affordable AND provides a powerful clean. It is a hardworking detergent that is as efficacious as ARM & HAMMER ​​plus OxiClean. For an extra boost of freshness for our towels and bedding, I like to add ARM & HAMMER Clean & Simple ​ Scent Booster in Crisp Clean for a clean smell that’s long-lasting.

Using a quality detergent helps you use the correct amount of detergent for your load size.  This helps cut down on waste and helps you save money.

I hope that these tips for a simple daily laundry routine help you make your family’s laundry easier to manage. Don’t forget to head to Publix to check the great offers on ARM & HAMMER™ Clean & Simple™ Liquid Laundry Detergent!

So I want to know: how often do you do the laundry? Do you think you could do laundry every day?
