Short answer: What many businesses call commercial rug rental is a weekly floor mat service. Specialty Mat places the right mats at your doors and work areas, picks up the dirty ones every week, replaces them with industrially laundered mats, and swaps worn ones at no extra cost. You do not buy, wash or store anything.

We are headquartered in Aurora, IL and serve businesses across Illinois and Indiana with a dedicated route driver and a local team.

What you get with a commercial rug rental program

  • Mats chosen for each spot. Pick from nearly 200 mat styles, sizes and colors, including entrance mats, anti-fatigue mats and custom logo mats.
  • Weekly pickup and replacement. Your route specialist collects the dirty mats and leaves clean, sanitized ones.
  • Wear replacement included. When a mat shows wear, fading or curling edges, we replace it at no extra cost.
  • No upfront investment. You rent the mats instead of buying them.

  2. Choose your mats. We recommend styles and sizes for each location.
  3. Delivery. Once the program is set, delivery and installation usually take 5 to 7 business days.

Who uses it

Offices, restaurants, medical practices, retail shops, manufacturing and distribution sites all use mats at the entrance and in work areas. Heavy-traffic buildings often need more frequent visits, which we can discuss during the analysis. Examples of areas we serve include Chicago and West Chicago; see our full service area.

Renting or buying?

Buying means you also handle washing, storage and replacement. Our mat rental vs. buying comparison lays out the costs so you can decide with real numbers.
