The Truth About Washing Towels and Clothes Together

5. Uneven Drying

Towels are bulky and require a lot of water, which makes them take longer to dry. If they’re washed in with thin clothing, you’ll either end up with soggy towels or overdried, shrunken clothes. Either way, your dryer works harder and your fabrics suffer. Washing towels and clothes separately isn’t just about freshness—it’s about protecting your laundry, expanding the life of your fabrics, and maintaining things truly fresh. For best results, wash towels on their own using hot water, a proper detergent, and a full soak cycle.
