Hire Big Or Go Local? Are The Big Box Carpet Cleaning Services Better Than Your Local Hometown Carpet Cleaner?
Floors. Whether they’re covered in carpet, rugs, hardwood, or tile, most of the time you never think about them.
But those floors are always there, always getting walked over and spilled on – sometimes played on – and always getting dirtier and dirtier.
So the task that you, as a responsible homeowner, are faced with is this: How do I clean the carpets, rugs, all the flooring and floor coverings in my home so I get the best cleaning results in the most cost-effective way?
Two choices immediately present themselves to most Washington, DC and Northern Virginia homeowners:
Go big or go local?
The Choice: Lowes vs. Home Depot vs. Trusted Local Cleaners
There’s Option No. 1:
Do I go with a small local professional carpet cleaning company like Zerorez® DC, one that offers in-home carpet cleaning services near me and 30-day customer satisfaction guarantees?
In this option, you call the local phone number of a 5-Star carpet cleaning company like Zerorez® DC, you get a free quote and make an appointment, and soon your home is cleaner, smells better and makes your family enjoy it even more!
And then there’s Option No. 2:
Do I rent a carload of complicated carpet cleaning equipment from one of those big box DIY chain stores (Lowes, Home Depot, etc.) and try to clean all those carpets and rugs myself?
In this option, you venture into the massive store, track down an attendant, and hope you’re renting the right equipment – and for long enough. Then you lug it back home and plug it in, hoping that neither it nor you make an error that harms your precious carpets and rugs.
Have you ever done a chemical-free carpet cleaning before? Do you know how often to deep clean carpets? Do you know how to wash a rug, or how to clean an area rug?
To get the same results from the DIY carpet cleaning rentals available at big box stores, you’d have to be a trained, experienced professional carpet cleaner yourself!
The thing about opening a big box? You don’t always know what you’ll find inside – and you might not like it.

Advantages Of Hiring Trusted Local Cleaners
Give yourself peace-of-mind. For the best-looking floors at affordable rates, hire the local 5-Star pros of Zerorez® DC.
Going local is just better, because:

- We’re a local carpet cleaning business offering a 30-day Gotta Love It guarantee
- We offer the economic value and responsive customer service you’d expect from a true local hometown business
- We use advanced carpet cleaning technology exclusive only to Zerorez®, such as our high-pressure Powered Water™ spray and our patented Dirt Extraction Wand

Support Local Carpet Cleaning Businesses, Not Big Clean
So, is it really worth it to truck it over to Lowes or Home Depot and try to make use of their do-it-yourself carpet cleaning services?
Or, is it smarter to hire an established, experienced local company that features cutting-edge Powered Water™ carpet cleaning technology and a 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee – plus you’re on a first-name basis with the owner?
Go local for your professional carpet cleaning services in Northern Virginia and Washington, DC. Asking the question, “Who’s the best among all the small hometown carpet cleaning companies near me?” really is the smart option for homeowners to take.
