    Thank you! This was more than a help to me. It proved the difference between being able to buy a rug we stumbled on and wanted, and not being able to buy it because we couldn’t get it home

    A very helpful informative video, helped me neatly fold a 2.1m x 3.2m Persian rug and fit it in a suitcase after struggling with this for a whole afternoon! Thank you so much!

    i managed to get a 2m x 3m heavy stiff Turkish rug into a regular size suitcase. tried it rolling the pile inside, impossible to fold, then saw your vdo, tried it the other way.. room to spare. I'm taking this home from the middle east so Im gratefll for your tips. excellent vdo

    Thanks Dan.
    REally good instruction.
    We tried folding our persian carpet 2ce, without success. THen we followed your tutorial and it fits perfectly at 44 lbs into a large suitcase, perfectly.
    HAllelujah. we can take it back from France to the US in a suitcase rather than a shipping company. Brilliant man!

    OMG!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VID!! I've got 3 6x9 rugs that I needed to store and was looking at those tube style bags at $16 apiece. With your method they now fit in lawn garbage bags, ready for storage. Brilliant!

      I don't think they should be stored in plastic.

    • @jmyonan

      Two things...First, never fold a rug for long-term storage. Always roll the rug. Two, never store a valuable hand-made rug in plastic. Use non-acidic brown paper with duct tape on the seams of the paper (and never get the tape adhesive on the rug). Hand-made rugs need to "breathe".

    OMG!!! Thanks a million man!!!
    You just saved me a lot of money!!!
    I thought I'd have to rent a van to go pick up the same rug as in this video and drag it by myself not knowing how up the stairs and around corners of the house!
    Wow! I never would have thought of doing it this way! So simple! and it will fit in any car no sweat in the trunk or even back seat! Thank you so much for sharing this video!!!and Merry Christmas 🎅!and a happy new year!!!

    Just got ready to move a rug I lugged up 4 flights of stairs 9 yrs ago. I'd forgotten how old, thick and heavy this 11-3 x 11-8 wool rug is. Or how nice it was. And how 50 isn't the same as 41. Your video was exactly what I was hoping to find. Thanks.

    Thank you, for the straight forward tutorial. Watched 5 videos, that glossed over everything half assed the work, and used rugs with the depth of a bed sheet as the piece being folded. Your very helpful with your no nonsense guide, without your life story or plugging a bunch of crap that has no point being in a video. You got a like and a subscription for your absolute awesome video. Nice vibrant color of your rug, thing looks beautiful. I inherited a bunch of old persain rugs, what would be the best way to extract the value out of them, without getting taken advantage of from the buyers? Have a few 6x10 or so, and a large 8x12, and a silk prayer size rug.

  • @alexandrae.1811

    Thanks for a great tutorial. My parents have a bunch of old rugs from Asia and I need to protect the ones I can. The rest are being used. We just got a wolf hybrid and so it's time to roll them up. I need to vacuum each side - yes. We are stuck in France with a bunch of Asian antiques. I wish I could sell them in Cali.

    If we cleaned the rug and brought it back to you the rug would be rolled, unless the customer requested otherwise. Thank you for the feed back everyone. People are saving hundreds of dollars by lugging their own rug.

    You take a great risk of damage by folding it pile out. The pile should always be protected by folding in.
