There is a lot to be thankful for this upcoming Thanksgiving, and for your rugs, it can also mean spills and messes. Here are some tips to help protect your rugs during your holiday celebrations.
Use Protective Covers
Place decorative yet protective covers or runners in high foot-traffic and dining spaces. This shields your rug from spills and crumbs while keeping it clean.
Act Quickly on Spills
Accidents happen, but addressing them immediately prevents permanent stains. Blot liquids with a clean cloth—never rub—and avoid using harsh chemicals. For tough stains, professional cleaning is the safest option.
Establish Food-Free Zones
Encourage guests to enjoy food and drinks in designated areas safely secured and away from your most delicate rugs. If possible, set up your dining table over a machine-washable or less valuable rug.
Vacuum After the Festivities
Once the celebration winds down, vacuum the rug to remove crumbs and debris. This prevents dirt from becoming embedded in the fibers.
Schedule a Post-Holiday Cleaning
Thanksgiving traffic and mishaps can take a toll on rugs. Scheduling a professional cleaning with SoCal Rug Masters in Orange County and Los Angeles to ensure your rugs are ready for the next holiday dinner to come!
