Seasonal Laundry Made Easy: How to Freshen Your Wardrobe for Fall

As summer winds down and cooler weather starts creeping in, it’s time for the annual seasonal wardrobe swap: shorts, swimsuits and summer dresses go into storage, while sweaters, jeans and fall favourites come back out.

But before you pack one season away and unpack another, there’s one step worth adding to your routine:

Wash everything.

A seasonal clothing changeover is the perfect opportunity to make sure the clothes going into storage are clean and fresh — and the clothes coming out are ready to wear.

With Tumbil laundry pickup and delivery, you can skip the mountain of laundry and have someone else take care of it.

Why You Should Wash Clothes Before Seasonal Storage

It can be tempting to take clothes straight from your closet and pack them into bins until next year. But even clothes that look clean can have body oils, sweat, deodorant, sunscreen, food residue and other dirt left behind.

Over several months in storage, those residues can contribute to unwanted smells and stains.

Before storing seasonal clothes:

• Wash clothing according to its care label
• Make sure everything is completely dry
• Fold items neatly to help prevent deep wrinkles
• Store clothes in a clean, dry location
• Avoid putting damp or dirty clothing into storage bins

Starting with clean clothes for seasonal storage means next summer, you can open the bin to clothes that were properly cleaned before being packed away.

Don't Forget the Clothes Coming OUT of Storage

Your summer wardrobe isn't the only laundry pile.

Sweaters, hoodies, long-sleeve shirts, jeans and other fall clothing may have been sitting untouched for months. Even when clothes were stored clean, they can pick up that unmistakable been-in-a-bin-since-April smell.

A quick wash can make your fall wardrobe feel fresh again before it goes back into your closet.

Instead of spending an entire weekend doing load after load of seasonal laundry, you can send it all to Tumbil.

Make Your Seasonal Closet Swap Easier With Laundry Pickup & Delivery

The problem with a seasonal wardrobe change isn't necessarily any one load of laundry.
