Carpet cleaned now what??

Hello,

Our apartment complex paid for us to get our carpets cleaned professionally since we renewed our lease this summer. My problem is they gave no after instructions! My question is..How long does it take for the carpet to dry typically and when is it safe to put back the furniture? I have been reading on some websites it takes 48 hours and if you put the furniture back to soon it could cause mold! Thanks for your help!   

Re: Carpet cleaned now what??

  • After a professional cleaning, it usually takes 24 hours for the carpet to dry. If you want to hurry up the process, you can direct a fan onto the carpet. Professional cleaning crews usually move the furniture back to where it was, and place blocks or plastic squares of some type under the legs of all the furniture.Ive been having my carpets cleaned for years, and never had a problem with mold.
  • Ditto the PP-24 hours, if you have wool berber it might be longer. My carpet guy also suggested closing the windows and turning on the a/c because the a/c has dehumidifying properties.
