Which Grocery Stores Rent Out Carpet Cleaner Machines?

Superstore

Home depot. go a couple hours before closing and do a 4 hour rental. They let you return it when they open the next morning.

$27=tax for 24hrs on the weekends, m-th you get it for 48hrs. Solution is about $13-26 depending on size

I tried renting one, and ended up paying somebody to do it. All the carpet cleaners I rented were broken, and I was tired of going back for another one.

Get a quote from a cleaning company after you figure out how much the rental+ solution+ time is. A lot of times the difference is negligable and you won't have to do all the lugging around, dumping dirty water, etc.

hey guys, picked a widetrack one from safeway for 30 bucks...i borrowed the solution off a friend. they are letting me keep it for a little longer for the same price :)

nice. yeah, i just came back from safeway after a bit of grocery shopping and i noticed that i way over-estimated the price. heh.

well, i just did 1.5 bedrooms so far....it actually pulled out some pretty gross stains....it does really well....i went a little heavy adding more Washing solution than it said...but my floors look pretty good...

ill do the rest of my house later....i have to wait till everything to dry...all my shit is piled up in my kitchen, hallway, and living room...i can barely walk around...i hope it dries in a few hours


i need fucking hardwood.......lol

Iceman_2K 04-25-2010 12:07 AM

hardwood can get cold if you dont have heating under the floors

a tip for those who want to save .

go to HD, or Rona, and rent the carpet cleaner 1 hour before closing. basically the 4 hour rate = whole night till 9am next morning (opening hour)

THATS if your neighbors don't mind the sound.

oh, btw, those things are pretty dirty. When i worked at tool rentals all we did was spray a bit of disinfectant on the outside of the machine... and then just dumped the dirty water out to be placed back on shelf ..lol

FerrariEnzo 04-25-2010 02:45 AM

that's not true.

you could pay with cash or interact as well.

however, they do require two(?) pieces of ID.

you can use your credit card, driver liscene, etc.

FerrariEnzo 04-25-2010 03:34 PM

safeway, homedepot, superstore at least i know requires a credit card.. tried to rent stuff there.. i didnt have a CC so couldnt rent from them...

other places im not sure...

Tegra_Devil 04-25-2010 03:40 PM

i got my from safeway....i didnt need a credit card..
