Preparing/sorting and loading the laundry

Preparing the laundry

Remove any loose items or metal objects, such as safety pins, paper clips, etc. from the laundry.

Brush sand, coins, etc. out of pocket and cuffs.

Close zips and button up cushion covers, duvet covers, etc.

Remove curtain runners, or secure them in a net bag.

Particularly delicate items, such as tights or lace curtains, or smaller items, such as tiny socks or handkerchiefs, should only be washed in a net bag or pillow case.

Some items are best turned inside out. These included knitwear, trousers, T-shirts and sweatshirts.
