Wool rug cleaning starts at $79 in Manhattan. Green Choice Carpet Cleaning NYC uses 100% organic, pH-balanced, lanolin-safe solutions made for natural wool fibers. No bleach, no harsh detergents, no shrinking, no color bleed. Hand-knotted, hand-tufted, Tibetan, Berber, and Persian wool rugs all cleaned with gentle hand-wash methods at our Manhattan facility, with free pickup and delivery across all neighborhoods from the Upper East Side to Tribeca.
Wool is a living fiber. It breathes, it stretches, it holds lanolin oil that keeps the rug soft for decades. Most carpet cleaning trucks blast wool with hot water and alkaline soap, and within weeks the pile feels like straw. We learned this the hard way years ago and never went back to those methods. Every wool rug that comes through our shop gets dusted, hand-washed in cold water, and dried flat. That is the only way wool stays wool.
Hot water above 95°F shrinks wool. High pH soap strips the lanolin and leaves the fiber brittle. We wash cold and use a near-neutral soap, so the rug keeps its softness and shape.
A 9x12 wool rug can hold over 30 pounds of dry soil. If you wet it before dusting, that dirt turns into mud locked in the foundation. We dust every rug for 20-40 minutes before any water touches it.
Older wool rugs and tribal pieces often have dyes that bleed. We test every color in a hidden corner before the wash. If we see any movement, we switch to a controlled cold rinse with dye-stop additives.
Wool rugs hung wet stretch out of square. We dry every rug flat on a screened rack with airflow underneath. The rug comes back the same size it left, no warping, no buckling at the edges.
Most folks call us after another company shrunk their rug or left it smelling like wet dog for a week. We will tell you upfront what your rug needs and what it does not. If a light vacuum and spot treatment is enough, we say that. If the foundation is dry-rotted, we tell you before you spend money. That is how we have kept clients in Manhattan coming back for over a decade.
We come to your apartment, look at the rug, and give you a fixed price. No surprises later, no upcharges when the rug arrives at the shop.
Wool rugs need a controlled wash pit. We pick up your rug, take it to our shop, and bring it back when it is clean and fully dry.
Urine soaks into wool fast and rots the foundation. We flush it out with enzyme baths, not cover the smell with deodorizer that wears off in two weeks.
Manhattan apartments have moth issues, especially in storage closets. We check every wool rug for larvae and casings before cleaning, free of charge.
Standard wool rug cleaning takes seven to ten days. Rush service is available if you have a deadline, just let us know when you book.
Most Manhattan co-ops and condos require a Certificate of Insurance before service. We email it to your building manager the same day you book.
Here is what makes us different from the truck-mount guys who clean wall-to-wall carpet and call themselves rug specialists. Wool is our specialty, and we treat it that way every single job.
Pictures tell the story better than we ever could. Below are before and after shots from actual Manhattan jobs, real wool rugs cleaned in our shop and returned to their owners looking like new.
We are based right off 42nd Street, so getting to any Manhattan neighborhood takes us under 30 minutes most days. Whether you are uptown in a prewar building or downtown in a loft, we pick up your wool rug at your door and bring it back washed.
We work with homeowners and renters in every part of Manhattan rug cleaning coverage areas, including the Upper East Side, Upper West Side, Harlem, Chelsea, Tribeca, SoHo, the West Village, East Village, Murray Hill, Midtown East, and Midtown West. Doorman buildings, walkups, brownstones, we handle them all.
Law firms, design studios, and showrooms in Midtown and the Financial District trust us with high-end wool pieces. We coordinate with building management for after-hours pickup so your business never stops, and we also serve clients in Brooklyn, Queens, and Long Island.
For Persian, Tibetan, and one-of-a-kind designer wool pieces, we offer in-shop hand-wash with extra dye testing. Clients in Westchester and across the city ship rugs to us for this specialty service. Need Persian rug care in Manhattan or antique rug cleaning? We do both.
Most cleaners want your card on file before they even look at the rug. We do it backwards. We look first, quote second, and you only pay when you are happy with the result. That is how a real local shop should work, and it is the only way we know how.
We do not use one machine for every rug. Wool gets its own nine-step hand-wash, the way rug cleaners did it before truck-mount carpet cleaning took over.
Step 1
We check fiber type, dye stability, and any damage at your apartment before quoting.
Step 2
Each rug gets a tag with your address, fiber notes, and pre-existing condition photos.
Step 3
The rug goes through our duster for 20-40 minutes to release embedded soil from the foundation.
Step 4
We test every dye in a hidden corner with cold water and soap before any full wash begins.
Step 5
The rug is laid in our wash pit, soaked in cold water with neutral wool soap, and brushed by hand.
Step 6
We rinse three times to remove every trace of soap. Wool that holds soap residue attracts dirt fast.
Step 7
The rug dries flat on screens with airflow above and below, taking 2-4 days depending on thickness.
Step 8
Once dry, we groom the pile in the natural direction and trim any loose fringe ends.
We have spent years building word-of-mouth in this city, and reviews are the closest thing to a handshake you get online. Read what real Manhattan clients say about their wool rugs after we returned them, and you will see why most of our work comes from neighbor referrals and repeat bookings every single year.
Our trucks run across the city six days a week, picking up wool rugs from homes and offices wherever you live.
