How We Clean Your Rug

  1. Check-in and inspection

    Each rug is logged on its own line with photos, and any existing damage, stains or wear is noted before we touch it. We also check dye stability on every rug so we use the right products.

  2. Dry dusting

    Dry soil hides deep at the base of the pile. We remove it before water goes on, so you don't end up with muddy rinse water.

  3. Wash

    Your rug is washed on our raised rug wash floor, not spot-cleaned in place.

  4. Rinse and extract

    It's rinsed thoroughly and spun in our centrifuge, which pulls out most of the water so it dries faster and cleaner.

  5. Climate-controlled drying

    Rugs dry in our temperature-controlled drying room so they're completely dry when you get them back.

  6. Final inspection and return

    We check the results, then roll your rug and hold it with a few 5 inch bands of shrink wrap, so it comes back to you rolled up and ready to unroll. The entire rug isn't wrapped, so it can breathe. Rugs going into long-term storage get breathable Tyvek.

A Facility Built to Handle Every Rug

Rug dusting area, dedicated rug washing floor, rug centrifuge, and temperature-controlled drying room — purpose-built for rugs, not adapted from carpet equipment.

★★★★★

"Total Cleaning Services (TCS) did an outstanding job. I had family members visiting from out of town and needed two area rugs cleaned. With so much preparation, I completely forgot about the rugs. I reached out to TCS at the very last minute thinking it was too much of a last minute notice, but Matthew came through for me with flying colors. He cleaned the rugs and also removed hard stubborn stains that I believed would NEVER come out. His professionalism excellent, the price was great. His arrival and delivery times were exactly as he promised. GREAT SRRVICE!!!"

"We hired Matthew to clean two large area rugs that had not been cleaned in over 20 years. He could not have been more friendly or accommodating. We were very pleased with results and will absolutely hired him again when the need arises."

"Total Cleaning Service provided the best customer service, over all value for cleaning two large area rugs and runner. The company was prompt in responding to my service request, and provided the best quote than their competitors. They are truly a full service company, offering free pickup, delivery and rug placements. Total Cleaning Service was able to complete the service in no time while competitors were quoting 3 weeks. The quality of their work is amazing. My husband inherited the rugs that has never been professionally cleaned since it was laid in their family home 38+ years ago. The rugs came back like they were brand new. They were unrecognizable! The plushness of the rug pile is amazing; the colors popped, and they were able to remove stains that were on the dining room rug (1st photo). My husband and I highly recommend Total Cleaning Services for the quality of their work, professionalism, customer service, and best overall value."

"I was so appreciative of him being prompt with arriving with my rug for a "routine cleaning". I messaged him and was able to get it picked up the next day, and dropped back off 2 days after. The rug looks so much better now. Thanks so much!"

Frequently Asked Questions

Pricing and booking

How much does rug cleaning cost?

Rug cleaning starts at $1.50 per sq. ft. for synthetic rugs. Wool, silk, viscose, and other specialty fibers cost more because of the care they need. Use the instant calculator for an exact estimate. Pickup orders have a $250 minimum ($500 in an apartment or condo building), and drop-off has no minimum. Pickup orders with 3 or more rugs save 10 to 22 percent.

How does pickup and delivery work, and how long does it take?

Free pickup and delivery is included with every pickup order. Drop-off is by appointment. Turnaround is 3 to 5 business days, or 5 to 7 for delicate fibers like silk, viscose, hand-knotted wool, jute and natural fiber, and Oriental and Persian rugs.

What happens at pickup and delivery?

We schedule the pickup by call, text, or the instant calculator. At your home we inspect your rugs, photograph each one, and note its condition. We then send a written quote with one line per rug that shows its size, condition notes, and photo. The price is shown up front and does not change. You approve and sign electronically, and no card or deposit is needed for rugs. We do a full inspection at our facility, and after cleaning we deliver your rugs. You acknowledge delivery and pay then. Afterward you get a text and an email asking for a rating, with an option to leave a tip.

Do I need to be home for pickup and delivery?

Someone needs to be home, unless you have a secure location where we can leave your rug(s), or you arrange for a doorman or neighbor to receive them.

What if I need to reschedule?

Free with at least 48 hours notice. Call 703-232-6027.

Is it worth cleaning an inexpensive rug?

Sometimes not. An 8 by 10 synthetic rug costs about $120 to wash, so if your rug cost less than that new, replacing it may make more sense. Send us a photo and we'll tell you honestly.

Process and policies

Will my rug's colors bleed during cleaning?

We test every rug for dye stability before washing. If we find any risk of bleeding, we'll walk you through your options before proceeding.

How will my rug come back?

Rolled and held with a few 5 inch bands of shrink wrap (one to four, depending on the size of the rug), so it stays rolled up. The entire rug isn't wrapped, so it can breathe. If your rug is going into long-term storage, we wrap it in breathable Tyvek. See Rug & Cushion Storage.

Do you clean the fringe?

Yes, and there's no extra charge for cleaning fringe.

Do you wash rug pads?

Yes, we can wash any rug pad that's stable enough to be washed. If yours can't go through the wash, we can sell you a replacement. See Rug Padding.

What if my rug is too damaged to wash?

If a rug is damaged badly enough that it can't be washed safely, we'll decline it and tell you at pickup or inspection. There's no charge if we decline a rug.

Are you insured?

Yes, we're fully insured. See Our Guarantee.

Care by fiber

Will cleaning shrink my wool rug?

Not when it's cleaned professionally — shrinking and felting happen when wool is over-saturated with water, which is why we use controlled drying to prevent shrinkage and color migration.

Is it safe to clean silk or viscose rugs?

Yes, with care — silk and viscose are delicate and weaker when wet, so every rug is inspected first, washed gently, and dried thoroughly. Viscose is the more sensitive of the two and results can vary, so we tell you what we see and what to expect before we start.

Can jute or natural fiber rugs get wet?

Yes, with care — jute, sisal, and seagrass absorb water quickly and can brown, stiffen, or leave water rings, so we inspect first, wash gently, dry thoroughly, and tell you what to expect before we start.

Can you handle antique or heirloom rugs?

Yes — a genuine antique or heirloom rug often represents real value, sometimes hundreds of hours of handwork. Every rug goes through a dye stability test before we ever introduce water, and we handle valuable, delicate pieces with the extra care they need.

Special cases

Do you treat pet odor in rugs?

Yes — pet accidents are blotted, never scrubbed, and treated at the source rather than masked. Add odor treatment (+$1.00/sqft) and every treated rug comes with 100% guaranteed odor removal — if any odor remains, we re-wash it at no charge.

Do you accept water-damaged rugs?

Yes, we accept water-damaged rugs. Water-damaged rug? Get it to us as soon as possible. The longer it stays wet, the more likely mold is to start and the harder dye bleed is to correct.

Do you clean rugs for people with allergies?

Yes — deep cleaning removes trapped soil, allergens, and odor that build up at the base of the pile over time, in ways regular vacuuming and surface cleaning can't reach.
