The five wards of the former Binh Thanh District, and where we clean rugs
The former Binh Thanh District is now five wards, and we take rug and carpet bookings in all of them. A ward is the local unit on an address; the city stopped using districts on 1 July 2025. Boundaries here were redrawn twice in 2025: on 1 January some wards were merged, leaving 15 wards, and on 1 July Resolution 1685/NQ-UBTVQH15 reorganised the whole area into Thanh My Tay, Gia Dinh, Binh Thanh, Binh Loi Trung and Binh Quoi. "Binh Thanh ward" now covers only the old wards 12, 14 and 26, so an apartment at Vinhomes Central Park, Landmark 81 or Saigon Pearl has a Thanh My Tay address.
Visits run from 7:00 AM to 8:00 PM every day, and the arrival time is settled with you at booking. Give your address the old way or the new way.
- Thanh My Tay ward
- The old wards 19, 22 and 25, along Dien Bien Phu and Nguyen Huu Canh to the bank of the Saigon River: Vinhomes Central Park, Landmark 81, Saigon Pearl, Sunwah Pearl, The Manor, Opal Tower, Pearl Plaza, City Garden and Wilton Tower.
- Gia Dinh ward
- The old wards 1, 2, 7 and 17, around Lang Ong Ba Chieu and Ba Chieu market. Mostly long-established townhouses, with the living room on the ground floor.
- Binh Thanh ward
- The old wards 12, 14 and 26; Richmond City stands on Nguyen Xi.
- Binh Loi Trung ward
- The old wards 5, 11 and 13, largely narrow townhouses in residential alleys.
- Binh Quoi ward
- The old wards 27 and 28 with the Thanh Da peninsula, where low-rise houses sit among waterways and trees.
Glass walls over the river: what a living-room rug in Thanh My Tay goes through
A rug beside a river-facing glass wall fades unevenly. Along Dien Bien Phu and Nguyen Huu Canh many apartments have wide glass fronts onto the Saigon River, with the living-room rug right beside them. Where a unit takes the afternoon sun, the strip by the glass is in sunlight for hours each day, so its fibres dry out and pale sooner than the part under the seating.
Aircon running most of the day keeps the room dry, yet fine dust, skin flakes and lint still sink to the base of the pile, where a household vacuum cleaner struggles to reach. The rainy season lasts from May to November and relative humidity averages about 79.5%, according to the city government portal. When the family is away and the apartment stays shut with the aircon off, a thick rug on a wooden floor holds damp between its backing and the boards.
Many apartments here are rentals and plenty of households keep pets indoors. Occupants change and the rug stays, so hair, smells and drink stains pile up.

Ba Chieu townhouses, Binh Loi Trung alleys, riverside homes in Thanh Da
Away from the riverside towers, Binh Thanh is rows of long-established townhouses around Ba Chieu market and along Phan Dang Luu and Xo Viet Nghe Tinh, the alleys of Binh Loi Trung, and the "village in the city" of Thanh Da and Binh Quoi.
- Street-front house, living room on the ground floor
- Road dust drops onto the rug every time the door opens. The specialist dry-vacuums in several passes before spraying, so dust does not turn to mud in the pile.
- Narrow townhouse in an alley
- Little sun and little breeze, so a rug dries slowly. Moisture is extracted thoroughly and the rug propped up to air; keep a fan running until the backing is completely dry.
- Low-rise house by the water in Thanh Da
- Damp from the river and canals can leave dark spots on the underside in the rainy season. Book for a dry, sunny day and have the floor underneath checked.
Wool, hand-knotted or synthetic: cleaned according to the fibre
No rug is cleaned until the Up specialist has looked at its fibre, weave and backing and tested colour-fastness on a hidden corner. The result decides the solution, the amount of water and the handling.
- Synthetic — 35,000 VND per m²
- The usual kind in bedrooms, children's rooms and rental apartments. Vacuumed to the base of the pile, treated stain by stain, then spray-extracted by machine.
- Wool — 60,000 VND per m²
- Wool holds water and does not tolerate strong solutions. A mild solution made for wool, little water and no stiff brush, so the pile does not fuzz.
- Hand-knotted — 90,000 VND per m²
- Fringes and borders are cleaned by hand. A piece of high value, or one needing full immersion washing, is assessed first, with frank advice on the suitable course.
- Rugs with pet hair
- Hair is vacuumed out in several passes before cleaning and pet stains are spot-treated. A stain that dried long ago may only fade, and you are told so in advance.
- Silk, artificial silk, aged backing
- Assessed from photos before we accept the piece, with the risks spelled out so the decision is yours.
What carpet and rug cleaning costs in Binh Thanh, by type of home
Each rug is its area multiplied by the rate for its fibre; rugs cleaned in the same visit are added together, and if the total is under 350,000 VND, that minimum applies. Sizes, rug type and the all-inclusive price are confirmed before you book and change only with your written consent.
- The price covers labour, the extraction machine, solution chosen for the fibre, protection for floor and furniture, stain treatment, hand-cleaned fringes and the Up Report.
- 1-bedroom rental apartment
- One 1.6 × 2.5 m (4 m²) synthetic rug in front of the sofa: 350,000 VND (calculated at 140,000 VND, so the per-visit minimum applies).
- 2-bedroom apartment with a pet
- A 2 × 3 m (6 m²) wool rug in the living room and a 1.5 × 2 m (3 m²) synthetic rug in a bedroom: 465,000 VND.
- Penthouse or duplex
- A 3 × 4 m (12 m²) hand-knotted living-room rug, a 2 × 3 m (6 m²) wool dining-room rug and a 2 × 3 m (6 m²) synthetic rug in the family room: 1,650,000 VND.
- Townhouse in Gia Dinh
- A 2 × 3 m (6 m²) synthetic rug under the ground-floor seating and a 1.6 × 2.5 m (4 m²) wool bedroom rug: 450,000 VND.
High-rise towers in Thanh My Tay: building rules and drying time
Your rug is cleaned inside the apartment: nothing is rolled up, taken down in the lift or sent away for days. Dirty water is drawn into the machine's tank, and the corridor and shared areas stay clean.
Most apartment complexes in Thanh My Tay have a management office. By custom the specialist shows ID at the lobby, uses the lift the building designates and works within permitted hours; some towers limit technical work at weekends, so we ask before each appointment. If the specialist arrives on time, waiting at the lobby is not counted as lateness.
- The coffee table and sofa are photographed before they are moved; heavy pieces go back only when the rug is fully dry.
- Keep the aircon or a fan running afterwards; the rug is usually dry in about 4–8 hours, depending on the thickness of the pile.
How often to clean a rug in Binh Thanh, and how to keep it between visits
Rugs in a home should be cleaned every 6–12 months. Choose the early end of that range for an apartment with pets or young children who play on the rug, a rental with many changes of guest, or a townhouse that opens onto the street.
- On afternoons of strong sun, draw the curtains so the rug is not in direct light for hours.
- Every few months turn the rug end to end, so the part by the glass and the part under the sofa change places.
How we work, and how to book
- Verified and punctual
- Up specialists are identity-verified and trained to the Up Standard, our working standard. More than 15 minutes late for the confirmed time, and that visit is 10% off.
- Free re-clean
- An item that falls short is redone free of charge within 48 hours of your receiving the Up Report.
- To book
- Send photos of each rug, its rough size and position, the fibre if you know it and your tower and unit or street address by WhatsApp or Zalo to +84 968 726 135, or use the Quote page of this website. We confirm the all-inclusive price and the time; an ordinary living-room rug takes about 45–90 minutes.
