let’s perfect your laundry routine
Face it, laundry isn’t everyone’s favourite task! It’s often the job that gets delayed until it becomes seriously overwhelming. The good news? With the right setup and a few smart habits, you can create a simple, efficient laundry routine that works for the whole household.

Let us show you how to streamline your washing routine using kaboodle laundry hampers, designed to make laundry day as fuss-free as possible.
streamline sorting with smart laundry hampers
One of the easiest ways to improve your laundry routine is to sort clothes before they reach the washing machine.
Our 2 x 35L base mount laundry hamper makes this simple for everyone in the household. Featuring two separate compartments, it encourages easy sorting from the start. Whites go in the white hamper, colours in the blue — no second guessing required. We’ve also got a side mount hamper depending on your preference,
With functional features like pull-out handles and ventilated sides, kaboodle laundry hampers allow clothes to breathe while keeping everything neatly tucked away inside your cabinetry.
get the whole household involved
Laundry shouldn’t fall on one person alone. By encouraging everyone to sort their own clothes, you’ll save time and avoid mixing wash cycles later on. It’s a small habit that makes a big difference — and helps keep your laundry routine running smoothly.
laundry tips and tricks that make a difference
A few simple habits can go a long way in improving results and extending the life of both your clothes and appliances.
keep appliances clean
Regularly remove lint from your dryer to prevent overheating. Run an empty wash cycle with detergent every so often to help clear out leftover dirt and residue from your washing machine.
check pockets before washing
Catching tissues, coins or keys before they go through the wash will save your clothes and your appliances.
wash pet bedding separately
For bulky or hair-covered pet bedding, head to your local laundromat. Industrial machines are better suited and prevent pet hair building up in your home washer.
pre-treat stubborn stains
Spray stains with a pre-wash treatment before washing. Always check the stain is gone before using the dryer, as heat can set stains permanently.
eliminate odours naturally
Add ½ cup of baking soda to the wash cycle or ½ cup of vinegar to the rinse cycle to help neutralise smells. For best results, pre-soak with baking soda if you have the time.

keep it simple with a compact hamper solution
If you don’t need multiple compartments, the 1 x 35L base mount laundry hamper is a compact and practical addition to any laundry. Its slim design suits most spaces, while large ergonomic handles make removal easy.
The hamper sits securely within a wire frame and can be retrofitted into a minimum 300mm base cabinet. With just seven easy installation steps, it’s a simple afternoon project that delivers everyday convenience.
plan your laundry layout for efficiency
When planning or updating your laundry space, functionality is key. Ideally, your laundry hamper should be positioned close to the washing machine for easy access.
Kaboodle laundry hampers are designed for straightforward installation and can be retrofitted into existing cabinetry, making them ideal whether you’re renovating or refreshing your space.
And don’t forget one of the most important laundry rules: always read the care label. Separating dry-clean-only or hand-wash items will help your favourite clothes stand the test of time.
