Pro Tips

✓ Wire shelving allows air circulation — better for laundry rooms prone to moisture
✓ Add a folding station above the washer/dryer at counter height (36") for easy folding
✓ Deep shelves (16"+) above the machines give space for detergent, fabric softener, and supplies
✓ Label every basket or bin so household members can put things in the right place
