A method to wash and dry carpets and an in situ carpet washing service is described. The service uses transportable equipment comprising in one frame a washing unit, a drying unit and conveyor for transferring the carpet between the washing and drying units of the equipment, a control unit for controlling the operation of the equipment, and means for receiving production goods to the equipment. In the equipment the carpet is transported from a first feeding end, through the washing and drying units to the second receiving end at a constant speed such that the washing and drying steps can be completed in less than 20 minutes and the tack free carpet can be returned to the customer without a need of a replacement carpet.
