Muddy entry rugs and big parlor rugs from Windsor Terrace homes, taken away for a full bath and returned, with no charge to collect them.
Every dog owner near Prospect Park knows the entry rug. It is the landing pad after each walk, and by the end of a wet month it is more mud than wool. The bigger rug in the parlor is not far behind, with grass, leaves and sand pressed into it.
Little kids tell the same story with different ingredients: cracker crumbs, yogurt, play dough and glitter from a craft project.
A home vacuum will not reach any of that. Our crew rolls the rug up, brings it to our plant for a wash all the way through, and returns it to the same spot. Collection and drop-off are free.
Rolling and wrapping happen in your house, and the rug goes out the front door and down the stoop with us. Nothing heavy is left for you to lift.
Strollers are a hidden rug problem on these blocks. Wheels roll in from wet sidewalks and park paths and leave gray tracks across the parlor rug. Those tracks usually wash out well once the rug is soaked.
The first stop at the plant is a dry beating to shake out sand and dirt. Rugs from homes this close to the park often release a surprising pile of grit.
Fiber and color tests decide what happens next. A wool rug, a cotton dhurrie, jute and synthetics all need their own wash.
In the bath, urine spots are treated where they have soaked into the backing, which is the only place the smell truly lives. The rug then dries flat so the corners stay square.
Multi-floor houses usually have a few rugs: a runner on the landing, something soft in the nursery, the parlor rug. One trip collects them all and one trip brings them all back.
A worn pad under a rug lets it slide and wear unevenly on wood floors. If yours is crumbling, we will mention it at drop-off.
Leaf season and mud season are the two times most park-side families send a rug out. Booking right after either one gives the longest stretch of a fresh-looking floor.
Persian and hand-knotted rugs get their own hand wash, explained on our Windsor Terrace oriental rug page.
