Start by reading the care tags included in all clothes. They are either at the inside top or inside lower seams. Colors and whites need to be separated. Most colors and whites cannot be washed and dried at the same temperatures. Some colors call for a low or delicate dryer setting, some permanent press. Again the tags tell all. I wash delicates in cold and dry on low; husbands white underwear in cold and dry on high, quality shirts and blouses in cold and dry on low.

wash anything shrinkable in COLD water...
warm and hot could shrink them
do not put all your colors and whites together,
sheesh didnt your momma teach you anything!!!
that will make the whites and the light colored stuff look dingy and dirty... yuck!!
drying clothes they can all be together that doesnt matter
hang bras to dry, they will last longer, anything you dont want to shrink, like sweaters or tiny cotton tees, hang or lay flat to dry
dont over load the dryer or you will NEVER get the clothes dry.

Cool temps, for everything, I wouldnt put anything that has color brand new with anything white , it has a tendancy to run colors. If you do mix your whites will dull to an off white.
