Laundry Organization - The Best Way to Organize Your Dirty Laundry Piles

Learn to organize laundry. When you organize laundry beforehand this boring chore goes quicker when it's actually time to wash the family's clothes.

♦Save your back. Buy laundry hampers on wheels. One type is a deep, cylindrical lined laundry hamper such as this Deluxe Chrome Rolling Hamper pictured from Organize-Everything below. This is a good hamper for holding heavy loads of dirty and bulky linens, blankets and towels. You can even wheel it around the house to collect these items. Your piles of laundry won't seem heavy at all when your laundry hamper is on wheels. And if the canvas bag retains any odor or stains at anytime, it's removable. Wash it.

♦Use a laundry sorter to store dirty laundry. A rolling laundry sorter has wheels. It's usually comprised of three laundry bags attached to a metal frame (see products below). The secret to making the most of your laundry sorter is to NOT throw your laundry into the laundry bags haphazardly. Sort your laundry as you throw it into the bags, or compartments, ongoing. (Teach family members to do the same.) Use one laundry bag for whites, one bag for gentle wash clothes and one bag for hardy color clothes. When a compartment is full in your laundry sorter, you're ready to wash! It just takes seconds to throw the pre-sorted laundry load into your washing machine.

♦These laundry sorters also are sometimes informally called rolling laundry carts or even laundry hamper sorters. Here are several of them sold by stores online:
