Find Money in Your Washer and Dryer

Find some proverbial money in your pocket with these energy-efficient laundry tips:

• Dry clothes only as long as necessary, instead of the whole cycle.
• Hang your clothes to dry.
• Remove and fold clothes immediately to avoid ironing.
• Keep your lint tray clean.
• Use only the recommended amount of soap (too much soap makes your washer work harder).
• Use cold water.
• Dry in consecutive loads, while the dryer is still warm.
