How Many Clothes Is a Medium Load

Medium/Regular load: If you’re washing on a medium load, then your load could be made up of approximately: 6 men’s t-shirts, a pair of socks, 2 skirts, 1 women’s sweater, 1 men’s sweater, 3 pairs of pants, 3 pairs of underwear.

What is considered a medium load of laundry?

A medium load of laundry is when the tub is approximately 1/2 full or 2 pounds of laundry per cubic foot of the washer’s capacity. A large load of laundry is when the tub is approximately 3/4 full or 3 pounds of laundry per cubic foot of the washer’s capacity.

How many shirts is a small load of laundry?

A small load fills the washer tub 1/3 full, a medium load, 1/2 full, and a large load, 3/4 full. Whether you’re using a front-loading or top-loading washing machine, your washtub should never be filled to the top. In traditional top-loaders, the water needs to cover the laundry.
