My store handles a good amount of wash-dry-fold laundry, and lately I\u2019ve been using a lot of detergent and softener. When I approached my laundry attendants about this issue, they told me that many of the customers indicated that they wanted their clothes to smell better. As a result, my attendants are including more of these laundry products into the wash cycle to achieve a stronger, more \u201cperfume-like\u201d scent. I want my WDF customers to be happy, but detergent and softener are expensive. What should I do?<\/strong><\/p>\n

First of all, if you attendants are using too much product, especially softener, the product won\u2019t properly rinse out of the garments \u2013 and a number of people have allergies to certain scents. At the end of the day, softeners were developed to soften the fibers of garments and linens, not to add a specific scent to them.<\/p>\n

In addition, when fabric softeners are not full rinsed out of laundered items, they can create waterproofing properties within the fibers the repel moisture. As a result, advice your attendants \u2013 especially when washing bedding and towels \u2013 to use less softener.<\/p>\n

If you have certain wash-dry-fold customer who want more of a scent on their finished laundry, I suggest using scent beads. They will provide you with better control over the scent of the laundry without interfering with the overall quality of the wash.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
