But it’s just not your style. Or it’s not the right colors. Or it’s too big for your dining room or living room. Or you just don’t like it.

Can you take it back?

Yes, usually you can.

• If you’ve been given a Persian rug – the actual rug, not a gift certificate – find out where the rug came from and contact the dealer as soon as you can.
• Do not use the rug. If it’s been placed on the floor, roll it up carefully immediately. Read this blog and watch the included video to ensure you roll the rug correctly to avoid damage.
• You may – and understandably so – have an issue with returning it if the rug has become stained or very dirty. You may have to pay for the rug to be cleaned properly before the rug dealer will take the rug back. You also should be prepared to learn that the dealer won’t accept the rug as a return.
• If you don’t want a Persian rug at all, you can arrange for the rug’s cost to be returned to the person/people who gave it to you.
