Local, Licensed & Insured
Ever had a rug turn sticky a week after a cleaning?
That tacky feeling is detergent the machine couldn't rinse back out. It dries inside the fiber and stays put, catching whatever the next pair of shoes carries onto the rug.

Logan Martin to Cogswell Avenue
A lake-house rug, washed while you are away and back when you are
A rug on Logan Martin takes a summer of wet dogs, sandy feet and a houseful of guests, and by the end of it the color has gone flat and the room has a smell nobody can place. The smell lives down in the rug's foundation, beneath the pile, and the only way out is a wash.
If you are only at the lake on weekends, the pickup is booked for a day you are there, Saturdays included. You get the inspection at the door with the rug flat on the floor: fiber, dye, a hunt for marks that may not fully go, and a measurement that becomes a written price. Say yes and it leaves; the delivery is set for a day you are back.
Satisfaction guaranteed on every rug we wash, and payment comes at delivery, once the rug is down and you have walked across it. The same goes for a house in town or a loft downtown: the van comes to the door, the price is written first, and the rug comes home clean.
Our Promise
Satisfaction guaranteed, on every rug we wash.
Unroll it, walk on it, look it over in your own light. Point out anything you'd like washed again and it goes back through the plant at no charge, whether you notice it at the door or a few days later. No store credit, no runaround.
How it works
How a Rug Runners pickup works
Book a cleaning
Call, text or book online. You pick the day, often the same day, and an exact arrival time, not a four-hour window.
We measure at your door
Our uniformed tech looks the rug over with you, measures it and writes the price down before it leaves the house.
Washed at our plant
Dusting, a wash matched to the fiber, a controlled dry and a final inspection, all backed by our guarantee.
Delivered back
Most rugs are home in 5–7 business days. We bring it in, roll it out and put the furniture back.
On the same visit
The rugs leave; the carpet and the sofas get cleaned in the house
Most homes here have three bedrooms or more, and the bedrooms are usually where the carpet is. With the rugs gone, that carpet, the stairs, the sofa and the mattresses can be cleaned where they sit by the technician who collected the rugs, using little water and leaving no residue, dry in about an hour. One arrival time covers all of it. Upholstery and mattresses are cleaned by their care code.
Offices on Cogswell Avenue, the clinics near the hospital and the lofts downtown book the same way: entry runners and lobby rugs picked up in business hours, and the carpet done on that visit too if you ask. There is a separate page for commercial work.
Two numbers decide it: the square footage the technician measures in front of you, and one rate for every fiber. That rate runs on average from around a dollar to two dollars a square foot, for synthetics and for the natural fibers both; the naturals get the gentler wash, not a different number. No booking comes to less than $99, and the figure is written down before anything is rolled.
When the rug is back, look it over in daylight. A spot that still bothers you means another trip to the plant and another wash, at no charge to you. Pet treatment carries its own 100% pet odor removal guarantee.
Exit 156, exit 158, the lake
Downtown, the lake and the neighborhoods between
The route comes out I-20 to the US-78 and US-231 exits and covers all of Pell City: the blocks around Cogswell Avenue and the courthouse, the neighborhoods by Lakeside Park, the streets of Eden and the Avondale Mills village, and the lake-side homes along Logan Martin on the Pell City side, out to Riviere Estates by Goat Island.
Pickups run Monday through Saturday, 7 AM to 5 PM. The distance out I-20 adds nothing to the bill.

Before and after, straight from our crews

A lake-house rug at the plant
Sand, dog and lake, taken out of the rug in the right order
Sand first. It sits in the foundation of a lake-house rug and saws at the fibers with every step across it, and it comes out dry, in the dusting, before the rug is washed. On a rug that has spent a season by the water, that step takes out more than people expect.
The deck-traffic synthetics are washed hard. Wool is washed cool and laid flat to dry. Cotton and jute are dried quickly so they keep their color. Silk gets the least water of all. Fringe is cleaned by itself. If a dog has marked the rug, a UV light shows where, and the urine salts are rinsed out of the foundation rather than covered up.
A full rinse, a complete dry before rolling, a final check of fringe, edges and pile, and the drive back to the lake. Rug cleaning has the full process; pet urine treatment explains the guarantee.

Pell City questions
Lake house, loft or family home: what people ask
We are only at the lake house on weekends. Can you work around that?
Yes. Book the pickup for a Saturday or any weekday you are there, since someone has to approve the written price before the rug leaves. At pickup we agree a delivery day that suits you, usually 5 to 7 business days later, and if a large rug or a pet treatment will take longer the technician says so then. You pay at delivery, after you have looked the rug over.
Is Pell City really inside the free pickup area?
It is. Pickup and delivery are free at every address we serve, and there is no travel fee for the drive out I-20. What you pay for is the wash, measured by the square foot and written down at your door, and nothing else. The van runs Monday through Saturday, 7 AM to 5 PM.
Do you pick up from the lofts and offices downtown on Cogswell Avenue?
Yes. A loft rug, an office entry runner or the rugs in a waiting room are collected during business hours and priced on paper there and then. If the building has stairs, leave the rug where it lies; the technician rolls it and carries it down. Plan on 5 to 7 business days without it, and the office carpet can be done on the same booking.
Can you clean a cowhide from the lake house?
Yes. A hide is not washed like a wool rug; it is cleaned with its hair and its backing in mind, and it never goes in the same water. Mention it when you book, leave it flat, and the technician looks it over at the door and writes the price down with the rest. It comes back on the same delivery as the other rugs.
Can you clean the sofa and the mattresses at the lake house on the pickup visit?
Yes. Upholstery and mattresses are cleaned in the home by the technician who collects the rugs. The care code on the sofa decides the method, so a cotton slipcover and a microfiber sectional are handled differently, and the bedroom carpet can be done on the same trip. One visit, one written price, and the rugs come back on a day you are at the lake.
