Important

When purchasing a classroom rug, there are a few important things to think about.
  • Did I measure my space?
  • Did I read the shipping/delivery time? Many of the rugs we sell are made to order and can take a month or more for delivery
  • Do I have access to an easy to use cleaning machine just in case of accidents?
