Clean your washing machine

Clean your washing machine

Step 1: Fill the washing machine up and pour in 2 cups of white vinegar. Let it set for 1 hour.

Step 2: Start the washing machine over again and let it run through a complete cycle.

When the machine drains if it still has grime on it use a towel and scrub it down really well.  Add straight white vinegar to the towel for the best results.

Step 3: Fill washing machine up again and pour in 2 cups of bleach.  Let it soak for 1 hour.

While it is soaking detail all the nooks and crannies.   Don’t forget to clean the knobs and the lid too.

Step 4: Restart the washing machine and let it run through a complete cycle.

Once the cycle has finished you are done; your washing machine will be clean and shiny!

If you have a front-loading machine, don’t worry, you can use these same steps to clean your washing machine but with a few modifications.  Instead of putting the vinegar and bleach (at separate times!) directly in the tub and then letting them soak for an hour {steps 1 & 3}, you will put each ingredient {at the appropriate step} in the detergent dispenser and run the machine through a complete cycle.
