Get the details on how to rent a Rug Doctor for your house…
How often do you clean your carpet? Once a month or maybe a few times a year? It used to be that we rarely cleaned our carpet and would just vacuum a bit and then think it was clean. However, after learning the following facts we are cleaning our carpets a lot more often!
A carpet that appears clean can hide as much as a pound of dirt per square yard.
The carpet in your home could be seven times dirtier than a city street.
2,000 dust mites can live on one ounce of carpet dust.
The five-second rule is a myth: bacteria can live after four weeks on the carpet.
80 percent of the dirt in your house walks in through the door on people’s feet.
Yuck, right? You might be like me thinking you want to hurry out and clean your carpet RIGHT NOW and when you rent a Rug Doctor, you can!
How to Rent a Rug Doctor
Rug Doctor rental machines are found in over 30,000 grocery, drug, hardware and home center stores in the United States. You can rent them for a 24 hour period or longer and make sure to take advantage of the Rug Doctor! You can use it to clean your carpets, couches and carpets in your cars. You’ll also be happy to know that each Rug Doctor machine in a retail location is 100% maintained and cleaned by Rug Doctor!
Renting a Rug Doctor machine is as easy as getting title cash! To find one near you, check out the store locator. You’ll also be able to print great money-saving coupons! Prices vary but Rug Doctor machines rent for around $25 for Mighty Pack and around $30 for Wide Track.
I was excited to see this Rug Doctor Rental Kiosk at my local Walmart. It makes renting a Rug Doctor even easier!
It’s a touch screen and you can go through all the steps of renting the machine and buying the cleaning products that you need! You can pay by cash or credit card.
I love that the Rug Doctor machine guides you into what cleaning products you would need for what you are cleaning.
Renting a Rug Doctor is easy! Once you get it home, make sure to maximize your rental! Clean those couches, carpets, car floors and even your mattress! Want to try the rug doctor, but need some extra cash? Check out MultipleStreams.org! You can also find coupons for a rug doctor here!

I cant tell you how many times I have thought about renting one, but wasnt sure how it all worked or how to lug it home by myself. Thank you for the great tips.

We used them when we had carpet in our home. What a difference it makes when you’re done cleaning.
Paula @ Frosted Fingers says
We haven’t had to rent one in a long time because we own our own rug cleaner now. We have to clean our carpets at least once a week due to an old dog that doesn’t always make it outside. They are easy to rent, though and look a ton easier now that there’s a kiosk for them!
Great Dane Mom says
What kind of rug cleaner do you own ? I have a Bissell and it worked for about a year. Terrible product.
Carrie with Children says
Ewww… all those dirty carpet facts makes me want to go rent a Rug Doctor right away! My carpets could definitely use some TLC. I love that touch screen service too!
Allie says
We haven’t ever rented one but I’m going to soon. I used a cleaner that my grandma had and really wasn’t impressed. I’m hoping that Rug Doctor could help our poor carpets!

Hi,
I have a pillow top mattress but the “pillow” is memory foam. Can I use the Rug Doctor on the memory foam? Their website is a little vague. It says you cannot use it on your mattress or mattress with memory foam, feathers, or down. But, then goes on to state that you can use their upholstery attachments and cleaner with antifoam. Thanks

I rarely comment, but i did some searching and wound up here How
to Rent a Rug Doctor – Sippy Cup Mom. And I actually do have a couple of questions for you if you don’t mind. Is it only me or does it look as if like a few of the responses look like left by brain dead people? 😛 And, if you are writing at additional places, I would like to follow anything fresh you have to post. Could you make a list of every one of all your community sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?

I found a video on YouTube showing how to use a steam cleaner on car seats. At $25, I can clean both cars and FINALLY get rid of that gym bag smell!
Now my hubby will ride in my car…unless it’s the way I drive…Naaaaaahhhhh

When you rent from the kiosk at Walmart do they charge you a deposit?
meesh says
Ive done this for years!! These are super super easy to use!! I was able to use it while nesting with my DD.
(Hubby had to lift from trunk)
However, it IS lightweight. I was prego so he was overly cautious.
Yes, its fits in the trunk of a car!! You dont need an suv, they are compact.
I did my entire two story house in about 4 hours. I didnt even break a sweat.
Easy peasy to rent and return.
Teresa says

Paula says
I want to rent one but scared I will get bed bugs. So maybe I will just buy one
Sarah says
My concern is ; what did previous renter vacum up? Are you bringing that into your home.
Like sick dog or contegions. The machines are not cleaned between renters right?
Mizzy says
Yes they are cleaned daily there is a person I know that just got a job and everyday of the week they go to all the stores with rug doctor and clean the machines behind the store and restock it all with clean materials.
Sippy Cup Mom says
They clean them between rentals!
