How do I clean a large area rug (whole thing) in a way that is inexpensive, but effective?
When we moved in here, it was winter and obviously wet. Now our nice white area rug looks horrible. If it weren’t for the darker spots, and the very light spots under shelves, it would look a completely different color. I’ve tried everything and nothing seems to pull it all out. Seems to spread the dirt more than anything.
Does anyone know a product or method that is relatively cheap, but will clean the carpet? Any suggestions are much appreciated

Have you rented the "steam cleaners" from the larger department/grocery stores (Walmart, Albertsons, Safeway. . ??) They rent for 30 + dollars a day and can get carpets very clean.
O borrow one from a local person.
Or go to "Freecycle dot com" and get one that way. Or Craig’s list.
