6 Ways to Save Time in Your Laundry Room

Ever wish you could spend less time doing laundry? With a few strategic updates to the layout of your laundry room, you can make every step from sorting to folding and hanging faster and easier. By designating space for each activity and all the supplies you need to store, you can transform your laundry room into a tidy, attractive area that makes keeping up with this ongoing task feel more enjoyable and less like a chore.

Custom Laundry Room Design
1. Sort Your Supplies

The first step to organizing your laundry room is deciding what belongs there. Organize laundry cleaners such as detergents, stain removers, and fabric softeners and place them on open shelves near the washing machine for quick access. Household cleaners and supplies can be stored in cabinets behind closed doors, maintaining a clean and organized appearance. If you have the available storage space, you might also keep an ironing board, extra towels or linens in your laundry room.

2. Expand Your Space

It’s amazing how much more room you can find when you take advantage of vertical space. Adding a custom organization system with cabinets, shelves, hampers, and baskets can dramatically increase your storage capacity, letting you store supplies within arm’s reach while keeping them tidy behind closed doors.

3. Tame the Laundry Pile

Prep dirty laundry for washing by using deep pull-out laundry hampers to organize darks, lights, and delicates as they come into the laundry room. When one of the hampers gets full, just remove the basket and tip it into the washing machine.

4. Make Your Ironing Board Disappear

Instead of a bulky, full-size ironing board, try a space-saving fold-out board that’s easy to stow off the floor and out of sight when not in use. And it’s not just for the laundry room. This compact board offers convenient ironing in your bedroom when you add it to an ORG Home closet organizer. You can also use a hook to hang your full-sized board flush against a wall when it’s folded.

5. Create a Place to Hang Out

Once clothes come out of the wash, built-in hanging rods make it simple to air-dry delicates. Consider adding a slide-out valet rod to hold freshly dried or ironed clothes on their way back to your closet

6. Claim Your Workspace

Scrubbing stains or folding clothes on the surface of your dryer can be awkward and cramped. Instead, treat yourself to an open countertop where you have plenty of room to work.

Yes, laundry is never-ending, but an organized and efficient laundry room can work wonders when it comes to making this chore more enjoyable!

I rarely give 5 star reviews. To me, a review at this level means there isn’t anything more that could have been done to make the experience better. Ron at Sierra Nevada deserves his. Over the years we’ve had a number of cabinetry projects done. Usually they are ok to good with exceptions in workmanship, delays or needs for return visits to make things right. Ron wasn’t the cheapest bid, but his work was well worth it. He worked closely with us fine tuning the designs, picking the materials an… Read more
Ron was amazing from the beginning. He made himself available quickly and sat with us for hours as my wife and I went back-and-forth on a TV niche and master closet layout. He’s very knowledgeable and accommodating. He stayed true to his pricing and install timing. Everything was completed within a day and a half and they both look great! Thanks for the great work here!

Ron was a pleasure to work with. He listened to our needs, and designed two closet systems. The job was scheduled and completed exactly as promised. Thanks Ron!

Thanks Ron!
Ron is the best! Great product AND time schedule to boot! Sincerely, I wanted to take my time to write this review to see if I would still love it in time! Yes… Yes and yes!!! Ron and his employee Edward were professional and fun to work with! Yes I made a more than a few changes along the way and he never once complained and still kept to his schedule and mine. Then I decided to have him use Forterra countertop to finish my laundry room cabinet base! Perfection!

I work during the week, so difficult to get things done.  Ron came on Saturday, at a time I selected, and measured my closet and made suggestions, then gave me models of what he would do. Through no fault of his own, scheduling got mixed up.  I thought he was coming one week, but he was scheduled the week before. So on Thursday when he thought he was scheduled to be here, I was at work.  He emailed me, then waited while I rushed home to let him in to get started. I have two very big dogs, but… Read more
Ron was great, he gave us lots of different options and took the time to find the right solution for our budget. He was professional and prompt. I recommend him for your next project.

Ron was great! We made an appointment with him on a Saturday and he talked us through everything, gave advice when designing and helped us create our built in closet and built in TV cabinets.  He never pushed on price or upgrading, he just wanted us to pick what worked for us. He was great even with our toddler and newborn causing a fuss. He came to the house to double check measurements and confirm that the designs would work for the spaces. He ordered the supplies and installed two weeks late… Read more
