The hefsed might happen pertains more to the dryer,only on a hot summer day all the wet stuff can turn ….
But really
If need be its best u set the timing on the dryer till 18 min after licht bentchen

Can a cleaning lady wash laundry in my house on Shabbos?

What if a Goya comes daily and one of her daily job is to do the laundry.
Can she wash the laundry on Shabbos?

Thanks!

This is indeed debatable but Rabbi Wilhelm makes it clear.

So I can’t put my clothes in the dryer before Shabbos and have them finish drying on Shabbos so I can wear them on Shabbos??
