Spring is in the air, and so is the dust trapped in your couch throws, bathmats and cushion covers. Now is the perfect time to freshen up your home, starting with a deep clean of your most-used fabrics.
Cleaning shelves and clearing clutter are great steps, but giving your fabrics a deep clean is just as important for a healthy and refreshed home. At Speed-e Laundromat, we make spring cleaning easy. We help you wash bulky items that don’t fit in your home machine.
Spring Clean Starts in the Laundry
Household fabrics such as doona covers, bathmats, cushion covers and throws quietly collect dust, odours and allergens during winter. A proper spring wash not only lifts the look of your home but also helps clear the air in your living space.
Couch cushions, which often go untouched for months, are a common source of hidden allergens. Doona inserts and pillow protectors also benefit from a seasonal clean, especially before you pack them away for summer. Bathmats and towels, which deal with daily dampness, deserve a thorough hot water wash to kill bacteria and freshen up fibres.
Why Speed-e is Your Spring-Cleaning Sidekick
Washing large or heavy items at home can be tricky and time-consuming. Our industrial-sized machines and dryers help you manage the weight and hassle of your spring laundry. Whether it’s queen-sized bedding or a stack of towels, we
have the power to get them clean, dry and ready for the season ahead.
And if you’re in a hurry, feel free to use multiple machines at once. It’s a great way to save time and get everything sorted in one visit.
There’s no need to plan around your day. We are open 24/7, including public holidays, so you can tackle your spring laundry at a time that suits you best.
Handy Tips for a Smooth Spring Refresh
Before washing anything, take a moment to check the care labels, especially for wool throws or mattress protectors. Use a gentle detergent, and when tumble drying, consider adding a few wool dryer balls to reduce static and shorten drying time. For delicate fabrics, our machines also have a cold-water cycle, perfect for items that need a gentler clean.
If you’re packing away winter bedding, make sure you wash it, dry it completely, and store it in a breathable bag. Add a lavender sachet or essential oils to keep things smelling fresh until next season.
A Healthier Home for Spring
As we head into pollen season, washing your household fabrics does more than freshen things up as it helps reduce allergens too. Throws, bedding and cushions can trap dust, mould spores and pollen particles that float in through open windows. Giving them a thorough clean supports better air quality indoors and can be especially helpful for anyone with asthma or hay fever.
To go beyond the laundry, try using a spring-cleaning checklist for the rest of your home. Once your bedding and towels are clean, keep refreshing your space. Wipe down the ceiling fans and clear out items you no longer use in the living room.
Working room by room and adding smart storage solutions for seasonal items helps bring everything together. This gives your whole home, not just your laundry, a real fresh start.
