Unloading the dryer may appear to be a simple task, but it can be quite laborious. The process of reaching into the hot drum, removing heavy clothes one by one, and dealing with socks sticking to the back wall can make the whole task feel awkward and tedious. However, there is a clever hack that can make this chore easier. All you need is a front-loading dryer and a sturdy laundry basket with a rim that fits securely inside the dryer opening. By placing the laundry basket upside down in the dryer and spinning the drum, you can make the clothes fall directly into the basket, reducing physical effort and simplifying the entire routine.
This hack is beneficial for those managing multiple loads or individuals with limited mobility or joint issues. It can help reduce strain on the knees and shoulders, making the laundry process easier for older adults, individuals recovering from injury, or those with physical limitations. While this hack may not save a significant amount of time, it can make the task of unloading the dryer slightly more manageable.

To try this hack, place the laundry basket upside down in the front-loading dryer so that the rim rests evenly on the edges. Slowly spin the dryer drum with your hand, allowing most of the clothes to fall directly into the basket without the need for reaching or piling on the floor. This method works best for medium-to-large laundry items, but smaller pieces like socks or underwear may not fall into the basket cleanly. You can enhance this hack by placing a towel at the base of the dryer to catch any lint or socks that may fall out. Sorting clean laundry becomes easier by drying each family member’s clothes separately in the basket.
