I have two regular sized laundry baskets in our bathroom. One (white)for white clothes and one (green) for all “other stuff” (clothes, bath towels and washcloths). I also have a small basket that lives on the dryer for kitchen towels and cloth napkins.The bed linens get washed separately as do the bathroom rugs. Makes life easy. When we strip the bed, those things immediately go downstairs to the washer and drier. When they’re done, they go right back upstairs onto the bed. When the whites basket has a loads worth it gets done. Same with the “other”basket. The basket for napkins and kitchen towels gets done when it gets full. I do a single load of laundry 4 or 5 days a week. I also use minimal amounts of detergent and mainly cold water. Seems to work for me and DH, but we don’t own clothing that requires special care.
