Before carpet cleaning, whether you are doing it yourself or if you’ve hired a carpet cleaning company, there are a few steps to get the area prepared:
- pick up all area rugs and mats
- remove items from under beds and from inside closets, if the carpets are being cleaned in there
- pick up all small items off the carpet
- remove all small items that are on furniture that will be moved
- move all light furniture from the room
- open windows for cross ventilation and have fans ready to set up
- if you are not able to open lots of windows, turn on your heat (furnace) or air conditioner
