Blow out the dryer duct.
Clean the lint trap on your dryer.
I know it sounds like something everyone already does, but when I moved into my house I found the lint buildup astronomical. The previous owners had hung a clothesline in there because I'm guessing the dryer didn't work well.
Is it DIY? This sounds like one of the things I'd rather hire a professional for.

Wow. Nasty! We had ours professionally done less than a year ago and I'm pretty sure it was expensive, so maybe I'll look into DIY next time.
