A Quick "Nuts & Bolts"
Power Tip

Greetings!
For many, the last step of the wash day process can be tough......getting clean laundry put away and ready for use.
We suggest having two wash baskets for each member of the family (colour code or label with their names)
When you first start this system stack the two baskets together in each person's bedroom. On wash day take the top basket full of dirty clothes and leave the empty one in place ready to receive more. This gives you a wash basket for each member of the family in the laundry room. As clean wash comes out of the dryer, immediately divide it into each person's basket. Fold it if you have time, but if not get each family member to look after their own. Have a spot in your laundry room to hang good clothing that needs to be protected from wrinkles. Completion of the process includes each person taking the basket of clean wash to their rooms and putting it away. Ideally this should all happen on wash day. When clean clothing is put away, stack the second empty wash basket under the one already in the bedroom. Having two baskets allows the process to be completed over several days if necessary, but always leaving a "home" for dirty wash and a "home" for clean wash. If you need to get a clean item before it has been returned to the bedroom, it is already divided by person and you can find it in the appropriate basket.
