This year too, it’s time to unpack your bags! And how should you wash all the clothes you used during the holidays in the best way possible? Let’s see how we can wash the most used clothes and accessories at the beach or in the mountains without going crazy!
Once you get back from the holidays, unpacking your bags is the hardest part, especially for the infamous after-holiday laundry. Between beach towels, bathing suits, shoes and sports clothes, here is how to do the laundry like a pro, without making any mistake!
How to do your laundry after a holiday at the beach
Once you get back from the holidays, the first thing to do is to remove all the sand you brought back home: after emptying your bag, share your clothes outside the window and clean the suitcase. Air out the clean clothes you did not use, and separate them from the dirty ones. Divide the latter by colour and fabric type, following the instructions on the labels, before washing them.
After washing the clothes with the right program, do a separate cycle for bathing suits. To avoid ruining them, choose the most delicate cycle and set the temperature to 30° or cold. Apart from bathing suits, you other must-haves for a beach vacation are towels. How can you wash beach towels in the washing machine? When getting back from the holidays, they are always very dirty and hardened, due to salt, and you should soak them in lukewarm water and a gentle detergent. After about 30 minutes, wash them in the washing machine at 40°, using a gentle softener and a laundry perfume, such as Care+Protect’s.
Holidays in the mountains? How to wash trekking clothes in the washing machine
If you spent the holidays trekking on the mountains, you certainly would like to know how to wash your trekking clothes in the washing machine. The basic process is the same: here too, you must sort the clothes based on their fabric and colour, paying attention to the labels.
Tech clothes are the most used in the mountains: they are made of synthetic, waterproof and breathable fabrics, which should be washed with extreme care. You can wash them in the washing machine, although at temperatures between 20° and 40°, and with specific programs, if possible.
Boots are another thing you should wash when you get back. And how do you wash trekking shoes? Remove the insole, brush off any traces of dirt and wash the boots and the laces in the washing machine, by placing them in a laundry bag and choosing a washing cycle suitable for shoes.
