How to clean side load laundry machine

Follow your manufacturers directions. If you no longer have your manual, look up your model on their website and follow the instructions. If you do not follow recommended steps, it could void any warranty you may have.

I found that if I wash my towels as the last load I can clean the washer at the same time. Buy a tub of powder Oxyclean add a cup to this load, wash on hot,NO fabric softener. Leave the door open so washer can dry when load is done. I do my laundry once a week so I can clean the washer and let it air dry when done. Front loaders get musty if not cleaned and dried.
