Washing larger items and garments like comforters and blankets can be a challenge at home. Equipment at home might not fit, and these bulky items need a little extra care. Monster Laundry has plenty of machines that can handle it and here are three tips to keep those bulky loads clean and fresh.
1. Use the Right Machine Size.
Home washers don't often have the capacity to properly clean bulkier jobs such as comforters and large blankets. And trying to force it, can damage your garments and even your machine. Commercial-grade washers, and even a few of the larger machines Monster Laundry offers would be a good fit.
2. Choose the Proper Detergent and Cycle.
Heavy items need more than just a standard wash, using the right cycle settings (typically gentle or bulky depending on your load) can really make a difference. Pay attention to those care labels to ensure you aren’t missing important instructions.
3. Don’t Skip on Proper Drying.
Improper drying is one of the biggest mistakes people can make when handling large items. Things like comforters and thick blankets can retain moisture deep inside, and in turn fester into mildew, mold, and musty smells. Commercial dryers, like the ones at Monster Laundry, can ensure even drying throughout.
