3 Signs That It’s Time For A Couch Cleaning

Couch cleaning is probably not on your list of cleaning chores. With advances in fabrics, most couches can endure lots of day-to-day traffic and spills.

But that doesn’t mean you should neglect couch cleaning. Often, instead of actually looking dirty, couches tend to show other signs that it’s time for a cleaning.

1.  Stains on Upholstery

This one might sound obvious. But you’d be surprised at how many people will just throw a cushion over couch stains. We are often able to clean up the spills that can prevent a stain from happening in the first place. But if you notice one or more stains that you didn’t get to in time, it may be time to clean the couch.

2. You’re Surprised When You Look Under Sofa Cushions

You know those times. Maybe you lost something and think it might have fallen between the sofa cushions. You pick one up to check and, wow, who knew you ate so much popcorn? Or your pets shed so much fur? Or you lost so many pens? Too much debris under the cushions can mean that the rest of the couch needs cleaning too.

3. The Couch Looks Tired

This one can save you the cost of a new couch. If you’re thinking it might be time for a new one, consider cleaning your couch first. While there may not be visible stains, months or years of human and pet traffic can leave couches looking worn. A good cleaning can make it look just like new, without shelling out money for a new one (or waiting months for it to arrive).

4. Have You Ever Cleaned Your Couch?

This can be the easiest sign to identify. If your couch is more than a few years old, and you can’t remember ever cleaning it, there’s your sign. Even if it doesn’t look dirty or worn, regular sofa cleaning keeps it looking new, and helps it last longer too.
