- Different Wash Needs – Towels need hot, intense cycles; clothes (especially delicates) don’t.
- Lint Issues – Towels shed lint that sticks to clothes and clogs dryer vents.
- Fabric Damage – Rough towels can snag or wear out delicate clothing.
- Hygiene Risk – Towels carry bacteria and can spread germs to clothes.
- Uneven Drying – Towels dry slowly, causing over-dried clothes or damp towels.
- Shorter Lifespan – Mixed loads wear out fabrics faster.
Laundry Tips:
- Wash towels hot, clothes cooler.
- Dry separately: high heat for towels, low/medium for clothes.
- Avoid fabric softener on towels.
- Clean your machine monthly.
Bottom Line:
Separate towels and clothes for cleaner, longer-lasting laundry.
