Question 1 of 5

1. Question

What makes in-processing whites (white laundry) so fast?

They do not get pretreated individually, so they can be presorted right into the washer.

Whites get bleached so it really doesn’t matter about pretreatment or sorting.

White laundry must be washed using hot water, so there is no pretreating white laundry.

White laundry is a bunch of small items like undies, socks, and t-shirts – each one must be pretreated, so it actually takes a long time!

Question 4 of 5

4. Question

Why do we recommend a “stagger start” of the washer loads?

Moving laundry through the process one load at a time (stagger start) from washer to dryer, dryer to folding, and folding directly to bundling – in about 10-15 minute increments, allows you to finish each step and keep laundry moving through the system without a backlog of laundry waiting to be folded at the end of the day.

Stagger start simply means start all the washers at one time, then all the dryers, and then spend the rest of your time folding. Leave your customers' clothes in the hot dryer until you have time to fold them.

Stagger start wash loads so that you have time to make phone calls, use the restroom, and park the car.

Always leave the dryers empty until all the washers are finished with all your laundry. This allows you to combine customers’ laundry into large dryers.

5. Question

What does “fold and load” mean?

It means that you load the car with folded laundry and bundle it at home.

It means that as you finish folding the laundry types, you load them into the customer bag or tote.

Fold and load means you grab out of the dryer and fold it, and load whatever you grabbed into the customers’ tote.
