multiple washing temps: how to store

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
Okay genius that I am bought wool covers, warm wash nylon covers and a few PUL covers and is trying to figure out the best way to keep track of soiled wool covers (I used to just leave in extra sink until I had a couple to wash - but that's gross), bummis original (warm water), PUL (hot's will go in w/ dipes), wool backed momma pads, etc.....

Here's what I have:

trash can with lid and PUL liner (1) (for dipes and wipes and PUL covers)
5 gallon plastic square bucket with airtight lid (warm water stuff?)
Bummis wet bag (wool?)

I'm thinking of getting a zipper wet bag for trips and a large wet bag for backup when other line is being washed......

Any ideas?

That sounds like way to much work to me.

I would wash everything I could on hot (including the nylon covers- if they get ruined eventually oh well).

The wool things I would either hand wash individually as you need them or throw them in with the regular laundry which I do on warm.

Yeah - not sure what possessed me to have nylon covers anyway since mostly I will be using wool - except on outings....I only have the newborn size thankfully!

I bet the nylon will be ok on hot as long as you don't dry them. They might not last quite as long but oh well.

Yeah - I'd probably just look for a solution for the wool, like a separate little trash pail or something, and wash everything else all together...

I hang dry everything but I thought maybe the nylon would cease to be waterproof if washed on hot?????
