Superior Rug Cleaning

Superior Rug Cleaning Company was founded in 1946 in Springfield, Massachusetts. Our main plant is still in Springfield at 6 Progress Avenue in the Springfield Industrial Park. Over the years, the plant has undergone many changes in equipment and technology, but our process still requires expert workmanship and is very much a hands-on operation.

From its first day in operation, Superior has maintained the highest standard of rugs cleaning and restoration. No other company in America cleans more rugs than we do. After all, with our name, we have a lot to live up to!

Adams & Swett

"Before Abraham Lincoln's presidency and the Civil War there was Adams & Swett Rug Cleaning Company"

History Of The Company

Our oldest company, Adams and Swett, has been in continuous operation since 1856. Superior Rug Cleaning Company in Springfield, Massachusetts was founded in 1946 and in Bloomfield, Connecticut (originally John Leavitt Rug Cleaning Company) in 1947 and Albrite Carpet & Flooring in 1931 of Lawrence Massachusetts.

Though there have been many changes in those many years—back then rugs were picked up and delivered by horse and buggy—rugs are still principally cleaned by hand. Today, we still dust, wash, rinse and dry all rugs. All repairs and restoration to fine Oriental rugs are done exclusively by hand.

Our Founder's Story

Back before the Civil War, when clipper ships first brought bales of dazzling Oriental rugs to the New World, two enterprising Bostonians started a rug cleaning business catering to the gentry from Beacon Hill and Charlestown.

Freedom Samuel Adams and William Swett were dedicated perfectionists, committed to only the most thorough and efficient cleaning methods for their demanding clientele.

“The work will speak for itself”, they reasoned. “If we please our customers the business will grow”.

Today, more than 167 years later, Adams & Swett has grown to become the leading full service rug business in New England. Our complete rug maintenance department provides fine hand-repair of Oriental and domestic rugs in addition to moth repellant, Scotchgard and deodorizing. For the most thorough, careful and convenient rug cleaning, you can count on the Adams & Swett reputation – a reputation we’ve earned since 1856.
