Expected dimensions of the rug are crucial for verification upon arrival.
Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA)
If possible, include when you expect the rug to arrive at our facility.

This is particularly important and should be clearly printed on the rug’s packaging. It helps us identify your rug quickly and accurately.
Service Requests
Detail any specific requests such as resizing, washing, Fiber ProTector application, or custom rug pad needs.

Shipping Your Rug
At Fiber Specialties, we pride ourselves on using the latest techniques and eco-friendly solutions to clean, restore, and protect your valuable rugs. Here’s why customers trust us as their preferred rug cleaning company in Idaho:
Packaging
Ensure your rug is securely wrapped in a durable, moisture-resistant material. This prevents damage and dirt during transit.
Labeling
Clearly label the package with the side mark or job name as detailed in the work order. Include your contact information and our address to avoid any mishaps.
Carrier Choice
We’re flexible with shipping options and want to make the process as smooth as possible for you. For clients outside the Treasure Valley, we typically ship rugs via FedEx—please note that rates may vary depending on your location. If you have a preferred carrier or special shipping request, we’re happy to accommodate whenever possible.
Upon Arrival at Fiber Specialties
Receiving and Inspection
Upon receiving your rug, we charge a standard receiving fee of $55 per rug. This fee covers:
Inspection: We thoroughly inspect the rug to confirm its condition and dimensions.
Storage: The rug is carefully rolled up and stored safely in our facility for up to 30 days.
We promptly communicate the arrival of your rug, providing feedback on its condition and confirming any details or questions we might have before proceeding with the requested services.
Processing Your Rug
Once we have verified the details and received your approval on the estimated work costs, we proceed with the necessary services. Our expert team handles each rug with care, ensuring that all tasks—from cleaning and FiberProTector application to resizing and alterations—are completed to the highest standards.
Additional Services
Rug Pad Customization and FiberProTector Application
In addition to our main services, we can cut a custom rug pad tailored to the size and shape of your rug. Applying FiberProTector creates an invisible shield that enhances the rug’s durability and appearance, protecting it from stains and wear while maintaining its natural properties.
