GETTING cleaner clothes while reducing your costs is now possible according to one laundry pro.

LAUNDRY FOR LESS
Eric Mendes, co-founder of Laundry Turtle, shared the best ways to wash better with The U.S. Sun.
His first tip will even help your clothes come out cleaner.
"Use the right amount of detergent," he said.
"Too much detergent can waste money and leave residue on your clothes," he continued.
You'll also want to pay attention to the temperature of your cycle.
Mendes advises washing with only cold water.
"It uses less energy compared to hot water," he said.
According to Mendes, bigger loads are also better.
"Save water and electricity by running full loads rather than multiple small ones," he said.
He also recommends air drying when possible.
"Avoid using the dryer to save on energy costs," he said.
Lastly, using his family-founded Laundry Turtle Detergent Sheets will free up room in your washer.
"They are green, save space, have 15 times the cleaning power, and are plastic-free," he said.

"To dry clothes faster, consider using dryer balls to separate items and increase airflow," he said.
"Additionally, spinning clothes at a higher speed in the washer can remove more water, reducing drying time," he continued.
"For air drying, placing clothes in a well-ventilated area with good air circulation can significantly speed up the process."
To save space and keep your closet more organized, he suggests folding or rolling clothes.
