6 Budget-Friendly Ways To Transform Your Laundry

Tip #1 Upgrade To Energy-Efficient Appliances

“Top of the list for any laundry do-over has to be thinking seriously about the appliances that run its engine,” says Peter Simic, The Good Guys Buyer – Laundry. “If your current washing machine or dryer is getting on a bit, it could be burning excessive energy, without having enough power under its hood to care for your clothes properly.”

“Upgrading to a more energy-efficient heat pump dryer, or a future-proof washing machine with smart functions such as auto-dosing, will involve an initial outlay, but it will also deliver savings every bill time,” says Peter.

Tip #4 Cut Costs With Cabinetry

Are you a DIY boss? Save a sweet bundle by installing a new laundry yourself! Kinsman (regulars on The Block) sell a flat-pack Xpress cabinetry range, ready for you to assemble at home, with range of colours and benchtop options to choose from.

“Creating your own new laundry is easier and more affordable than you might think,” says Kinsman ambassador Lysandra Fraser. “With the Xpress Range, you can pick a low-maintenance, water-resistant benchtop finish such as laminate, and have it delivered within 10 working days.”

Wary of swinging a hammer yourself? “Consider the Kinsman Studio Range,” says Lysandra. “The cabinetry is delivered fully assembled to save you time and money, so you can enjoy your new laundry faster.”

Tip #5 Declutter By Stepping Up Storage

Does merely entering your laundry make you sigh? “A cluttered laundry with no room to sort loads or stash cleaning props makes washday a grind,” says Lysandra. “If space permits, install a tall cupboard for easy storage of brooms, mops and ironing boards.” No space? No worries. There are other ways to tame the mess!

“Activate your walls by adding closed cabinetry with wire shelving to conceal the chaos, or some floating shelves to organise everyday items such as laundry liquids,” Lysandra suggests. And if you’ve got a stacked appliance layout, try switching to a side-by-side arrangement for your dryer and washer to unlock extra storage space on your walls.

Tip #6 Add A Hanging Rail

A fixed hanging rail will instantly make your laundry look and feel more organised by cutting down on clutter and clothes wrinkles (cue less time with the iron!). Install a rail over your sink to catch drips if you frequently handwash delicate items.
