❄️ Winter Laundry Tips: Dealing with Damp Clothes and Short Drying Days
Ijeoma Uzoigwe • November 12, 2025
When the chill sets in, laundry can quickly turn from a simple chore into a frustrating challenge. Shorter days, low temperatures, and constant dampness make it harder to get clothes dry and no one enjoys that musty “been drying fordays” smell.
At Spin & Chill Lounge, we understand the struggle of keeping laundry fresh during the cold months. That’s why we have put together some practical winter laundry tips to help you stay ahead of the weather and keep your clothes crisp, clean, and cosy.
1️⃣ Wash Smarter, Not Harder
In winter, laundry takes longer to dry, so it’s important to wash strategically.
- Avoid overloading your machine — clothes need space to rinse and spin properly, reducing excess moisture.
- Use a high spin cycle to remove as much water as possible before drying.
- Wash smaller loads more often, so you can manage drying without clothes piling up.
💡 Pro tip: Add an extra spin at the end of your cycle — it can cut drying time significantly.
2️⃣ Maximise Indoor Drying (Without Turning Your Home into a Sauna)
Drying indoors is often the only option in winter, but too much moisture in the air can lead to dampness and mould.
Here’s how to make the most of your indoor space:
- Place clothes near a radiator or dehumidifier, not directly on it.
- Open windows slightly to allow moisture to escape.
- Use a drying rack that promotes airflow between garments.
- Rotate your clothes halfway through drying to avoid damp patches.
If you have multiple loads, space them out to give each enough time to dry completely.
3️⃣ Choose Fabrics That Dry Faster
Winter is the perfect time to pay attention to fabric choices.
- Synthetic materials like polyester or nylon dry faster than cotton.
- Thicker fabrics such as towels and jeans should be washed earlier in the day so they can dry before nightfall.
💡 Try washing lightweight items together and heavier items separately to speed up drying times.
4️⃣ Say Goodbye to the “Damp Smell”
Even clean clothes can smell musty in winter if they take too long to dry.
To prevent that:
- Use a scented laundry detergent or fabric conditioner designed for freshness.
- Dry clothes completely before folding or storing.
- If they still smell a bit off, pop them in a tumble dryer or warm airing cupboard for a short refresh.
Still battling that stubborn damp smell? It’s a sign your clothes aren’t drying quickly enough — or need a professional touch.
