Energize and Organize: Laundry Room Checklist

Yesterday my neighbor Ginny and college roommate Maura were talking about the importance of cleaning out the clothing dryer vent at least once a year.  For a step-by-step Illustrative guide, visit www.wikihow.com/clean-a-clothes-dryer-vent.

That got me to thinking about additional laundry room tips to recommend to you.
1.  Clean the lint from the dryer trap every time you dry clothes!
2. From time to time, vacuum the lint that has fallen behind and around your washer/dryer. 
3. Check behind your washer/dryer for lost items and retrieve them with a yardstick.
4. Observe if your washer's drainage tube is in the right position and make any adjustments as needed.   A plumber recently told us that our washing machine drainage tube needed to be repositioned to maximize drainage functionality.
