Moving to a new home? When to clean the sofa

·

If you are taking your sofa with you to a new home, order cleaning after the move, because it can get dirty again during transport. A previous owner's sofa is worth cleaning before you start using it.

Should you clean the sofa before or after moving?

If you are taking your sofa with you to a new home, order cleaning only after the move. The sofa can still get dirty during transport, so wait until it is in its new place.

Should a previous owner's sofa be cleaned before use?

We recommend cleaning it before you start using it. You may not know how the sofa was used and cared for earlier. This is one of the reasons people contact us.

How do you clean the sofa in a new home?

We use hot-water extraction cleaning with an upholstery extractor, which removes dust and dirt from the fabric. See the sofa cleaning service.

Should you clean if the sofa looks visually clean?

Visual cleanliness does not necessarily show whether dirt has built up deeper in the fabric.

What if I decide to buy a new sofa?

Before deciding, read our comparison of cleaning and a new sofa.
