White Towels Have Brownish Stains After Drying?

My white dish towels and wash cloths are coming out of the dryer with orange-brownish stains on them. What on earth could be causing this and what can I do?

You could have a worn front door drum deal and that is rubbing off on the items.

There was rust in the drum before I kicked my dryer to the curb causing this to happen to everything I dried. I don't know if that is fixable, in my case it was the final straw and I ditched the dryer.

Been line drying for years now. If you have a dryer repair person you trust, ask for their guidance. Post back with an update.

Previous suggestions are probably correct.
How old is your dryer?
You can ask your local Sears Service center as they service all types/brands of machines and they can tell you if it can be fixed.
They may try to send out a service man but tell them you need to know if it just needs part (a service call would be expensive).

Google Sears service center with your zip code.

Look carefully slowly wiping inside of drum with a white towel. Possibly a pc. of crayon or something left in a pocket while washing that fell out&stuck to drum while drying.

Carefully look & slowly wipe areas with white towel to find the spot. It could be a pc. of crayon or something from a pocket missed in the wash that fell out&heat melted onto drum. I had this happen.

Could be a bit of rust on the inside of the unit. Inspect it and try to and find the rust. Unplug the machine and clean the area with a baking soda paste and rinse.
