National Laundry Day is April 15 and is a great time to recognize the vital role laundry plays in keeping our homes and families safe, healthy, and comfortable. Whether you’re a laundry pro or just getting started, we invite you to join the celebration, share your best laundry advice and learn about the ongoing efforts to make laundry more efficient and environmentally friendly.
Why Laundry Matters
Laundry goes beyond cleanliness—it impacts how we present ourselves to others every day. Wearing fresh, well-cared-for clothing can boost confidence, create positive impressions, and contribute to our overall sense of well-being. The care you put into your laundry reflects your attention to detail and respect for yourself and those around you, making it a cornerstone of personal and professional interactions.
Laundry By the Numbers
- April 15 is also Tax Day, but 80% of Americans would rather do their laundry than their taxes.
- If you fail to prepare you prepare to fail. Only 54% of survey respondents pre-sort their laundry and just 48% pre-treat stains.
- Nearly half of Americans due between 1 and 3 loads of laundry every week, while 37% do between 4 and 6 loads, on average.
- Only 19% of American households iron clothes regularly.
