80. Laundry Hampers

I highly recommend getting two laundry hampers, one for lights and one for darks. This way, your laundry is already sorted when it’s time to visit the laundry room.

These pop up hampers are super cheap and are foldable so they’re easy to pack.

81. Delicates Bag

So important to avoid snagging your bras on the rest of your laundry and ruining your strappy tops in the wash.

I have this exact delicates bag set and I love that it comes with so many different sizes to fit all of your items. The set is great for travel, too!

82. Drying Rack

Drying racks are not normally something you see on a college packing list, but I love mine and here’s why.

If you have a lot of delicate items, items that need to be hand washed (you and I both know no one is doing that), the dryer malfunctions, or–heaven forbid–no dryers are free, this baby saves you.

83. Detergent

Get a bottle of regular detergent, a medium size that’s easy to carry around. (Get new bottles auto-delivered via Prime Student.)

Pro tip, don’t get Tide Pods. These sound like a good idea but in many dorm washers they get stuck and leave big chunks of residue on your clothes.

84. Stain Remover

I’ve tried them all and this Oxi Clean Spray is the absolute best for removing any type of stain.

85. Dryer Sheets

Not essential but I like to use these to remove static and add a fresh scent to clothes.

86. Lint Rollers

If you, like me, can’t stand lint on your clothes, buy a 5 pack of sticky lint rollers on Amazon for $15 and be done with lint for good.

87. Sewing Kit

Optional but so nice to have. I did not have one of these freshman year and it would have saved me so many headaches.

88. Iron

You might not use an iron all the time, but when you have an interview or business casual event coming up, you will need it. Don’t skip this one.
