Secure the rolled rug with heavy-duty twine, box sealing tape or stretch banding film. Important: Do not allow any of these items to come into direct contact with the surface, as they can cause indentations. Before securing the roll, wrap the carpet in a bag or moving blanket. Wrapping the rolled carpet requires care.May 13, 2016
How do you calculate the weight of a rug?
