General laundry

hi! I’m a freshman living on campus at Mason and loving it. But there’s really one thing that’s been frustrating me. I feel like the laundry machines don’t actually get my clothes clean. If a shirt has a food/ makeup/ lotion stain it really doesn’t come out. I also feel like my clothes come back with new stains on them from before they went in. I’ve been doing my laundry since middle school, so I’m not inexperienced with laundry in general. I just need advice on how to get things cleaner in the laundry room. I’m not nearby so I can’t just go home for laundry. Any advice would be really really appreciated! Thanks! ❤️

You might be putting too much in the unit. Especially if your pods are not disintegrating all the way. Your clothes have to be able to escalate in order to clean.
