Area Rug Cleaning in Collierville, TN

Area rugs add warmth, comfort, and style to your home — but they also trap dirt, dust, allergens, and odors deep within the fibers. At Healthy Home Services, we provide professional area rug cleaning designed to safely and effectively refresh your rugs while protecting their color, texture, and construction.

With over 25 years of experience, our team understands that every rug is different. That’s why we tailor our cleaning method based on rug type, condition, and level of soiling to deliver the best possible results.

In-Home Area Rug Cleaning

For most rugs, in-home area rug cleaning is the most practical and effective solution.

Our professional in-home process allows us to clean your rugs without removing them from your home, making it ideal for:

• Area rugs in living rooms, bedrooms, offices, and hallways
• Multiple rugs cleaned during the same visit
• Light to moderate soiling
• Routine maintenance cleaning

We use professional equipment and safe cleaning solutions to lift embedded dirt, remove odors, and restore freshness — all while minimizing moisture and protecting your flooring beneath the rug.

Types of Area Rugs We Clean

We clean a wide variety of residential area rugs, including:

• Synthetic area rugs
• Wool rugs
• Decorative and designer rugs
• Shag and high-pile rugs
• Braided rugs
• Specialty and delicate rugs (inspection required)

Each rug is inspected prior to cleaning so we can select the safest and most effective method.

When In-Shop Rug Washing Is Recommended

Some rugs require a more intensive cleaning approach due to severe soiling, heavy staining, pet contamination, or odor issues.

For these situations, Healthy Home Services does offer full-service in-shop rug washing on a limited basis, with a maximum rug size of 8×10.

In-shop rug washing may be recommended when a rug has:

• Heavy pet urine contamination
• Deep, ground-in dirt and debris
• Strong odors
• Significant staining requiring immersion cleaning

Every rug is carefully evaluated before recommending this option to ensure it is appropriate for the rug’s fiber, backing, and condition.

Area Rug Cleaning FAQ

Q: Do you clean area rugs in-home or off-site?
A: Most area rugs are professionally cleaned in your home, which is ideal for routine maintenance and light to moderate soiling. For rugs with severe soiling, heavy pet contamination, or strong odors, we may recommend full-service in-shop rug washing on a limited basis. In-shop washing is available for rugs up to 8×10 in size and is recommended only when necessary.

Q: What types of rugs do you clean?
A: We clean a wide variety of area rugs, including wool, synthetic, decorative, shag, braided, and specialty rugs. Each rug is carefully inspected to determine the safest and most effective cleaning method based on its fiber type, construction, and condition.

Q: How is area rug cleaning different from carpet cleaning?
A: Area rugs require a more specialized approach than wall-to-wall carpet. Rugs often have different fibers, backings, and dyes that must be handled carefully. Our process is customized for rugs and may include specialized pre-treatment, controlled moisture levels, and detailed attention to both appearance and fiber safety.

Q: Can you remove pet urine and odors from area rugs?
A: We can significantly reduce pet urine odors and contamination in many rugs. For surface-level issues, in-home treatments may be effective. For deeper contamination that has reached the backing or padding, in-shop washing and odor treatment may be recommended for the best possible results. While no company can guarantee complete odor removal in every case, our methods are among the most effective available.

Q: Is your rug cleaning process safe for delicate or antique rugs?
A: Yes. We use fiber-appropriate, pH-balanced cleaning solutions and adjust our process for delicate, wool, and natural fiber rugs. Every rug is inspected and tested before cleaning to minimize the risk of dye bleeding, shrinkage, or damage.

Q: How long does area rug cleaning take?
A: In-home area rug cleaning is completed during your scheduled appointment. If in-shop washing is required, most rugs are typically ready within 5–7 business days, depending on the level of cleaning and drying needed.

Q: Do you offer rug protectant after cleaning?
A: Yes. We offer an optional rug protectant that helps repel spills, reduce staining, and extend the life of your rug. This is especially beneficial for high-traffic areas and homes with children or pets.

Q: How often should area rugs be professionally cleaned?
A: Most area rugs should be professionally cleaned every 12–18 months. Homes with pets, allergies, or heavy foot traffic may benefit from more frequent cleaning.
