How do I prevent excessive shaking of a washing machine?

The first step to fixing excessive shaking of a washing machine is to adjust the load. This can cause a shaking effect when the load is not evenly distributed. To create balance, you can re-arrange the contents of the laundry tub. Otherwise, the heaviness of the load can cause the drum to spin aggressively during the rinse cycle, which can lead to the whole washing machine to shift.
