A professional carpet cleaning appointment can restore your carpets to their previously pristine condition and enhance the overall look of any room. Preparing your home for the cleaning process will ensure the professionals can access all areas of the floor and perform their work with precision and without major disruption to your daily life. Here are a few tips to help you prepare for a carpet cleaning.

How to Prepare a Home for Carpet Cleaning Services

1. Remove Light Furniture

Furniture takes up the bulk of the floor space in any room. Removing it will allow the cleaners to do the most thorough job possible. However, carpet cleaning companies are not licensed moving services, so aim to move as much furniture out of the room as you comfortably can beforehand. Enlist the help of family members or friends if need be, and store the furniture in an out-of-the-way place where it won't get in the way of cleaning equipment.

2. Store Fragile Items

If the room has precious or easily breakable items, store them in cushioning material in another location for the cleaning. Cleaners are professionals, and they take great care in the rooms where they work, but items can sometimes get jostled, and accidents can happen. Before they arrive, stand in the middle of the room and move in a slow, clockwise circle, doing a floor-to-ceiling scan to ensure all delicate items, clutter, and easily movable furniture have been removed.

3. Pick Up Clutter

Busy homes are often the ones that need professional carpet cleaning services the most. The easier the carpet is to access, the easier it will be for the cleaners to do their job and get your carpet looking like new. Declutter the room by picking up all toys, clothing, shoes, books, and dog toys and bones.

These tips will give your cleaners the space they need to breathe new life into your carpet.
