A person with short hair, wearing a denim shirt, is crouching in a laundry room. They are placing clothes from a wicker basket into a front-loading washing machine. The room is bright with white walls and cabinets, and framed photos hang on the wall.

Deep Clean Your Washer

Stinky washer problems? No worries! I have just the fix to keep your washing machine running smoothly.
Prep: 1 hour
Cook: 5 minutes
Total: 10 minutes

Equipment

  • 2 towels
  • 1 bucket

Ingredients 

  • Distilled vinegar
  • Baking soda
  • Cold water

Instructions 

  • Soak two towels in cold water with baking soda.
  • Spray distilled vinegar on the rubber rim of the washing machine.
  • Let both set for 30mins or an hour.
  • Then ring out the towels and add them to the washing machine.
  • Run a cycle on hot with distilled vinegar in the spot where you load laundry soap.
  • Once done take a cloth and run it over all the mold and mildew in the rubber rim of the washer. It’ll come right off!
  • If you want, run one more rinse cycle and you’re done.
  • For an extra icky washing machine: consider vinegar soaked rags or paper towels set into the grooves of a narrow moldy space overnight.
