How often should I rotate my furniture and why?
This is a very good question! Furniture rotation is a very important part in keeping your carpets wear patterns at a minimum. Think about it. If every person that comes into your house walks in the same door and pivots in the same spot the fibers in those areas are not only going to become soiled, but will also be matted down and lessen in size.  In room such as your family room where most of the traffic is you will want to make sure you rotate the furniture at least every 6 months. The key to this is to try and put the furniture where the old traffic patterns would be occurring so the same spots will not be used again.Think up different ideas and come up with a nice new room pattern. Not only will this help keep your carpet fibers length and our ability to do carpet cleaning, but will also keep your house feeling new, and different which many of you may thoroughly enjoy.(ps- if you want to make this easy on yourself buy some of the slide pads that go under the legs of the furniture. This way you will save your backs in the process.)
