Laundry Hacks: 5 Ways to Cut Your Drying Time in Half

Speed up your laundry routine with these simple hacks that can significantly reduce drying time:

1. Toss in a Dry Towel

Add a clean, dry towel to your dryer along with wet clothes. The towel will absorb moisture, helping your clothes dry faster. Remove it after 15-20 minutes.

2. Shake Out Clothes Before Drying

After washing, shake out each item to reduce wrinkles and allow better air circulation in the dryer, cutting down on drying time.

3. Use Dryer Balls

Wool dryer balls help separate clothes in the dryer, improving air circulation and speeding up drying time. They also help soften clothes naturally.

4. Clean the Lint Filter

A clogged lint filter reduces the dryer’s efficiency. Clean the lint trap before every load to keep air flowing freely and speed up the drying process.

5. Use the Spin Cycle Twice

Before putting clothes in the dryer, run an extra spin cycle in your washing machine. This removes even more water, reducing drying time significantly.

By using these laundry hacks, you’ll not only cut your drying time in half but also save energy and wear and tear on your clothes. Happy drying!
