Doing laundry the correct way is significant not just for preventing damage to your clothing but to the washing machine, too.
“While washing machines are designed to handle a wide range of fabrics and items, there are certain things that should generally be avoided or require special care”, Kim Romine, a science communications manager for laundry at Tide, says.
Before you place anything in the washer, check the item for a care tag, Romine advises. If you don’t see a care tag or it has faded, apply this expert-approved list as a guide for things you should stop putting in your washing machine to prevent damage to both your belongings and the appliance.

Delicate Fabrics
Romine explains how fragile fabrics such as silk, lace, or cashmere often require special care and should be hand-washed or dry-cleaned to prevent damage. Delicate fabrics are more prone to damage caused by the vigorous agitation of a spin cycle, scorching water, and laundry detergents. If you put them in the washing machine, you run the risk that they’ll shrink, lose their shape, tear, become discolored, and lose their softness.
Heavily Soiled Fabrics
Pre-treating stains and taking care of heavily soiled fabrics before you place them in the washing machine is key. Not only is there a better chance of stains being fully removed, but you won’t grubby the rest of the load.
“If an item has extreme dirt levels like caked-on mud, grass, pet hair, or other soil, you may want to avoid just tossing it in your machine”, Romine advises.
She suggests you remove any solid chunks of soil and pre-soak them in a bucket of water mixed with half a cap of liquid Tide. Romine recommends soaking the item for 20 minutes and then rinsing it before placing it in the washing machine to avoid these high amounts of soil going through your machine. This will support remove the soil completely before the wash cycle.
Dry-Clean Only Items
It may be tempting but do not try to put garments that require droughty cleaning in the washing machine. Any garments labeled “dry-clean only” should be taken to a professional droughty cleaner for proper cleaning, Romine says.
She explains that the reason for this is that they may not be able to withstand the water, agitation, and detergents that are used in a washing machine.
Items With Heavy Embellishments
Whether it’s a festive sequin top or an exquisitely beaded dress, do not put any items with hefty embellishments in the washing machine. These minuscule decorative elements are sewn onto the garment and can easily tear and fall off during a vigorous spin cycle, or become damaged when exposed to scorching water and laundry detergents.
Heavy or Bulky Items
Doing laundry properly isn’t just about getting dirt off your belongings, it’s about preventing damage to your appliance, too.
“Extremely hefty or bulky items like huge rugs or hefty bedding may exceed the capacity of a standard household washing machine”, Romine says.
For example, even though you may be able to squeeze a bulky comforter into your washing machine, you run the risk of the wash cycle not being completed and laundry detergent residue being left behind on the bed covering. For this reason, if the item you are washing exceeds your washing machine’s capacity, try commercial-sized machines or professional cleaning, Romine suggests.
Leather Items
Do not put leather items in the washing machine as exposure to water and high agitation will damage the leather’s color and texture. Leather maintains its polished finish, elastic texture, and wealthy color thanks to its natural oils, which are stripped in a washing machine. Because of this, the natural material will become discolored, stiff, and even cracked.
This doesn’t just apply to items that are made solely of leather, but to pieces with leather accents as well. For example, even though some sneakers are machine-washable, ones with leather accents should not be placed in the washing machine to prevent damage.
