I use a small plastic 3-tier shelf lined with plastic dishpans to separate clean laundry. Each dishpan is labeled with each person's name and one labeled "upstairs." 2 of my kids are old enough to put up their laundry and they know to check their bins each day. It keeps everything neat and organized, teaches them responsibility, and saves me from having to put up five people's laundry.

This is a great idea. I have been using separate laundry baskets for my family of four, but they tend to never get emptied and then the baskets are always underfoot.

I did this too and it got annoying... Hope you'll try it and that it works as well for you as it has for us!
Great idea!! I am drowining in laundry and have an overwhelming feeling of dread when I carry out the huge load of laundry to fold.... thanks,
do you know of any place to purchase "round" plastic tubs approx 2 1/2 to 3 gal
thanks. Hilda at richil AT earthlink.net
Try U.S. Plastics, they are in Ohio. I have gotten good stuff from them.
What a neat idea! I do laundry in the basement and put all socks, etc into one big basket. But that means that when the family digs in them they make a mess! Thanks for posting!
