Good preparation on your part helps ensure that everything goes smoothly during the job. Make the most of this investment by doing a few things before the carpet cleaner arrives.
Move furniture
The first thing you should do is to clear the carpeted area as much as possible. Clearing the area makes it easier for the carpet cleaner to do their job and cut down the time it takes to clean.
Move as much breakables and furniture out of the way as possible. If you can't do it yourself, the carpet cleaning company can help you move heavy items like couches, beds, or drawers for an extra fee. Though carpet cleaners will try to be as careful as possible, it is best to store fragile items in a safe place.
Vacuum if needed
Some carpet cleaning services vacuum the carpet prior to beginning their work; while others assume that the homeowners have done this beforehand.
Vacuuming will help remove as much dirt and debris from the carpet. Since you've done that already, the carpet cleaners can just focus on removing dirt and debris that are embedded deep within the fibers of your carpet.
Communicate areas of concern
Your goal is to get your carpet as clean as possible. That said, you need to let your carpet cleaners know what caused the stain and if you've tried to treat it. The more they know, the better they are able to treat your carpet.
Provide a parking space
Carpet cleaners will need to park their vehicles as close to your home as possible. This will make it easier for them to load and unload their machines. Free up a parking space for your carpet cleaners.
