Having your rug cleaning company offer you a complete white glove (hands off) experience of offering you a pick up and delivery service is a huge added convenience!
Some companies have this service baked into their cleaning price while others will tack it on if you're interested. When comparing prices itโs crucial to compare prices on a square footage basis. For example letโs compare quotes to get a 8x10 oriental rug professionally cleaned with a pick up and delivery service:
Cleaning company #1: Charges $3.50 per square foot - our 8x10 will cost $280 @$3.50 per square foot price. But they also charge a minimum pick up and delivery charge of $125. The total all in cost will be $405.
Cleaning company #2: Charges $4.50 per square foot - our 8x10 will cost $360 @$3.50 per square foot price and the pick up and delivery service is included. The total all in cost will be $360 for our 8x10.
Even though service provider #2 has a higher square footage cleaning price you're still saving $45 choosing them because they've included the pick up and delivery price into their base pricing.
