The 'Pre-Flight Sort' System

Okay, so for laundry room chaos, I'm thinking about how clothes just end up in one big pile, making sorting a headache before you even start. What if, right outside or just inside the laundry room, we had a set of clearly labeled, maybe even color-coded, bins? Like, one for 'Darks', one for 'Lights/Whites', and maybe one for 'Delicates/Towels'. The idea is that clothes go directly into their 'pre-flight' bin as soon as they're taken off or brought to the laundry area. This way, when it's laundry day, everything is already sorted and ready to go into the machine, no big piles to dig through. It's like, let's tackle the chaos *before* it even lands in the machine!
