i'm a senior and i live alone...i want to clean a beige very dirty rug how do i do it what do i use???heeelp

Answer 1

That's a lot of work for a senior. If it is a wall to wall carpet I would call a carpet cleaning establishment...they send out coupons, use them.
For area rugs I vacuum mine good, both sides and take them out on the driveway and use "Spray and Wash"s on spots then use a bucket with "Woolite" and long handle brush and scrub them down both sides, rinse with a hose and hang them over the rail fence on a warm sunny day to dry...one at a time.

Answer 2

Rent a good carpet steamer from a place (some grocery stores rent them) or hire a chem dry to come and clean and remove stains from the carpet.

Answer 3

there are a few options.
1, throw it and bu a new one
2, hire a shampo cleaner, (only if you have other places to do)
3, hire someone to do it they advertise i local papers cheap deals on carpet cleaning.
4, vanish for carpets or capret shampoo mouse, although a capet shampooer is the best option good luck

Answer 4

If its a throw rug, just take it to your local laundrymat and throw it in one of their large washers. Most laundrymats will even do it for you for a small fee. Most rugs can be hung dry or dried in a dryer on low heat

Answer 5

soak the rug in (water + detergent) for half an hour then squeeze it hard n rub it with a brush or put it in a washing machine.

Answer 6

You can rent a carpet cleaner and do it your self not that expencive.
