 Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry? 
Of course I do!
  Whites (bleach) a load that we do not dry (I guess thats delicates? Or things we don't want to shrink) then everything else in warm
  Been working well for the past 14 years I have been doing it for myself.

 Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry? 
OMG, I have to sort out all our laundry, its not good to mix them all together, the whites will start to look dull, and I have different detergents for my whites, darks, towels and sheets.

  Yep! I have 3 of these in the basement: IMAGE 
  *white towels (sanitized & bleached) *colored towels (sanitized) *cotton underwear, work t-shirts, cotton socks (hot wash, cold rinse) *work denim (warm wash, cold rinse) *pants (dress denim and casual pants - cold wash, cold rinse - damp dry) *dark shirts (cold wash, cold rinse - damp dry) *hand washables (bras, wool socks) *sheets *blankets *DD's laundry *DS's laundry 
 
   What do you mean by "sanitize" and you sound like my mother   and she is the one who taught me how to do laundry!  She has such a specific method to laundry!

 Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry? 
nope! i'm WAY too lazy to sort.. plus i hate doing a lot of small loads and using so much water/electric. even with our HE machine, i have to think a little bit green     everything gets thrown in the same load and washed on cold... i've had no problems at all. i ususally do the dogs stuff separate though.

 Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry? 
I wash towels separate in hot, but everything else, including whites, go in together.  I wash on cold and nothing ever runs.

 Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry? 
I do sheets and towels together. I usually dont separate the clothes, except if I have something I have never washed before and its a dark color I usually pull it out and try to make sure nothing white goes in that load. I hate doing laundry so I am pretty lazy about it.

 Re: Does anyone actually sort laundry? 
I sort; by colour, fabric, if it has extra trim that might damage another garment...
