Your Hillsborough at a glance
How we serve this zip code.
Drive time
From our Newark atelier via 84 and the Dumbarton Bridge, then 101. Quickest in mid-morning.
Pickup days
Dedicated San Mateo route. Windows confirmed in advance.
Zip codes served
All Hillsborough neighborhoods served on the same run.
Typical turn
Standard wash. Repair or dye work adds 3–7 days, quoted before we start.
Most of the rugs we collect from Hillsborough are hand-knotted, and that is not an accident. The homes in Lower North and Upper North, the properties around Crystal Springs Reservoir, and the quieter streets of South Hillsborough hold an unusual density of Persian Sarouks, Tabriz medallions, silk Qums and antique Caucasian weavings — often inherited, always loved.
We collect on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays — roughly 30 minutes via 84 and the Dumbarton Bridge, then 101. Quickest in mid-morning. Your rug is picked up, washed, and returned by our own team — never a common carrier.
