Prep Time: Cook Time: Total Time:
1. Fill washer with HOT water. Add 1 quart of bleach. Let agitate for a minute and lift the lid again. Let stand for 1 hour. Be sure to set a timer so you don’t get sidetracked and forget.
2. After an hour, run the cycle through. Immediately fill up the washing machine with HOT water again. Add one quart of vinegar and agitate for 1 minute. Lift lid and allow to sit for one hour.
While the vinegar and water is standing, use that mix to thoroughly clean the inside and outside of the washer, where you will find the most disgusting things. Get out a handy dandy toothbrush and soft cloth and get into every nook and cranny of the machine. There are a lot of them!
You should also remove the fabric softener lid and clean inside. Fill up your laundry sink with some hot water and vinegar and drop the entire piece inside. Fabric softener gets built up and your water will look like this!
This is what the water will probably look like in the washing machine after letting the vinegar and water sit for an hour and cleaning the entire inside and outside of the washer. Pretty gross!
3. Let the cycle finish out and admire your sparkly clean washing machine! You will reap the benefits of much cleaner clothes!
