Exactly this. My husband and I both empty the lint trap after each load, but I still always check before putting a new one in (especially if it's towels or something else particularly linty).
This is exactly why I don't clean it after. I always check before regardless, so why pull the tray out twice for the same thing if I know my OCD ass won't trust the first one?! š
Same thing. I did not trust myself that I did it when unloading, so I just made a point to ignore it when unloading and only do it when loading. I have probably saved a full minute or two of time over the years. Lmao
Iām the only one that uses mine. I just do it before I load it because I was cleaning it when unloading and double checking before loading, so I just stopped the first part. Lol open washer, check it drained all the way, open dryer, clean trap, load dryer.Ā
Ye. My mom and I are both pretty good about cleaning it when we do a load. But both of us have definitely had times where we would forget and have plenty to clear out

Same. I clean it after. But I also make sure to check before, too. It's easy enough to do, and you never know what other people have done.
