[header] How to stop a rug from moving on a wooden floor [title] Measure your rug's width and length. [step] Before you even think about going out to purchase a rug pad, you'll need to know your rug's dimensions. Use a tape measure to record the length and width of the rug.
Once you have the measurements, use these to determine the size of your rug. [substeps] If you have a 70 inch rug , 30 inches will be the standard width and 40 inches will be the length. Then, multiply those numbers by your rug's width. [substeps] For example, if you're going out to buy carpet pads, your rug's width will be 17 inches. If your rug has fringes, leave them out of the measurement. The rug pad won't need to cover them. [substeps] Many rugs will exceed 14 inches. This gives your rug less room for padding, making the rug uneven.
