Laundry detergent makers include full instructions on how to use their product, including how much. Nowadays, concentrated detergent means less is more and more could be worse. So pay attention to the instructions included with the packaging and use only as much as indicated. A good rule of thumb is to never fill the cap, as no detergent manufacturer will ever indicate to do so. Remember, most people overuse laundry detergent, which can lead to worn clothes and worn washing machines.

How much detergent to use for load of laundry?
It depends upon several factors: a) The size of the load (the larger the load, the more detergent will be required) b) How dirty the load is (the more dirty, the more detergent is likely to be needed) c) How hard your water is (the harder the water, the more detergent is likely to be needed) d) The concentration of detergent used (the less concentrate the detergent, the more will be required) Basically, it is impossible to say how much detergent to use without seeing your laundry, how dirty it is, what kind of water you have and which detergent you intend to use. However, manufacturers will have done extensive testing of their products and will have instructions on the packaging as to how much detergent to use for various combinations of (a)-(c) above. If you are uncertain of the factors above I suggest your own testing: use the lower/lowest dosage suggested by the manufacturer and see how it washes - if it isn't satisfactory, try a higher dosage suggested. After a while of doing your laundry, you should have gained the experience to know which dosage to use for each load of laundry.
