Deyan Dimitrov, CEO of Laundryheap, explained: \u201cIt goes without saying that no one would put coins and keys in their washing machines on purpose, but you should take extra care not to throw them in by mistake.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe metal can damage your washing machine\u2019s drain pump and scratch its interior, so make sure to always check your pockets before putting a load on.\u201d<\/p>\n
The expert also recommended checking pockets for tissues which can often enter in trousers and hoodies.<\/p>\n
Although they don\u2019t damage the washing machine, small particles of tissue can end up sticking to every garment in the wash.<\/p>\n
Deyan explained: \u201cFabrics such as silk and wool run the risk of shrinking, losing their shape and staining other clothes during a quick washing machine cycle.<\/p>\n
