How to Organize Large Laundry Loads in a Self-Service Laundry

13 October 2025Tips

When you visit our self-service laundry in Málaga, making the most of large-capacity washers and dryers is key to saving time and protecting your clothes. Here are practical tips to handle big laundry loads efficiently.


1. Separate by Type and Color

  • Whites: T-shirts, sheets, and underwear to avoid staining.
  • Dark or bright colors: T-shirts, pants, or towels.
  • Delicates: Embroidered, sports, or sensitive fabrics, washed separately or in laundry bags.



2. Optimize Washer Loading

  • Don’t overload the machine: clothes need space to move and receive detergent evenly.
  • Place heavier items at the bottom and lighter items on top for balanced washing.



3. Pre-Treat Visible Stains

Apply a local stain remover to garments with food, mud, or makeup stains before washing. This ensures the best cleaning results.



4. Take Advantage of Large Dryers

  • Our dryers can handle blankets, duvets, and bulky items quickly.
  • Adjust temperature according to fabric: air dry for delicates, medium heat for sturdy fabrics.



5. Organization and Convenience

  • Bring bags or baskets for easy transport of laundry.
  • While your laundry is washing and drying, you can read, work from your phone, or relax.



✨ Extra Tip: Plan your loads by fabric type and color to save time and protect your clothes, making the most of our professional machines.


Conclusion: Organizing your laundry before using a self-service laundry makes the process faster, safer, and more efficient. Your clothes come out clean, well-cared for, and ready to wear in far less time than washing at home.
