When people hear you say the word \u201claundry,\u201d they often assume you\u2019re referring to washing and drying clothes.<\/p>\n

However, this step is only a part of the laundry cycle, which actually begins and ends in the closet.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a quick breakdown:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. You select an outfit from your wardrobe to wear.<\/li>\n
  2. After changing, you place dirty clothes in the hamper.<\/li>\n
  3. When\u00a0the laundry bin is full, you sort clothes and separate colours.<\/li>\n
  4. Dirty clothes\u00a0are washed, dried and folded.<\/li>\n
  5. Clean laundry is put away.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The cycle seems simple, but you know full well that it doesn\u2019t always go smoothly or quickly. Prevent laundry gridlock and make this\u00a0process more efficient.<\/p>\n

    Small changes\u00a0in your daily routine can lead to big savings in time.\u00a0Try to reduce your time spent on laundry\u00a0with these\u00a0simple tips.<\/p>\n

    \"Built-in<\/a><\/p>\n

    Add built-in laundry hampers\u00a0to your closet cabinetry<\/h3>\n

    Built-in laundry hampers<\/a>\u00a0help you stay organized without taking up space. They are also a great way to conceal\u00a0mess and odour.<\/p>\n

    Organize your bedroom closets<\/h3>\n

    Putting away laundry is the last step in the cycle and it\u2019s a very important part of the overall process.<\/p>\n

    If your bedroom closet isn\u2019t organized and you put clothes away in\u00a0random places, you are wasting valuable\u00a0time every morning when you get dressed for work.<\/p>\n

    A closet organizer<\/a> makes it easier to\u00a0know\u00a0where everything belongs. You\u2019ll speed up your morning routine and putting away laundry will\u00a0be\u00a0less of a chore.<\/p>\n
