Millbrae was subdivided in waves, and the wave tells you what is on the floor. Millbrae Highlands opened in 1927 and kept adding tracts until 1955, so those blocks hold pre-war rooms: narrow halls, a formal dining room, runners and small Persian pieces cut to suit them. Mills Estate is a different animal. Its first subdivision was recorded in 1954 on land that had belonged to Darius Ogden Mills, and its wide mid-century living rooms take room-size carpets heavy enough to need two people on the stairs. Millbrae Meadows and Capuchino sit between the two eras. Weather counts here as much as vintage. Night and morning fog is normal through summer, and rainfall climbs from roughly twenty inches in the lowlands to thirty-two in the hills near Skyline, so wool by a west-facing door stays damp longer than owners expect. We handle that in a controlled drying room rather than leaving it on your floor. Collections near Millbrae Station and east of El Camino Real are quick; the hill streets need the second pair of hands for anything over nine by twelve. Everything travels back to the workshop for the same twelve-step cold-water immersion wash, vegetable-dye safe and lanolin-preserving, and the same van returns it.
Booking is simple. You choose a date, and we come back inside a day with the exact window. The phone is staffed 8am to 8pm, all seven days, for calls and texts on (650) 675-8160. Pickup and delivery are free anywhere in Millbrae on orders of $150 or more, and the rug never changes hands along the way: our own team collects it, washes it at the Newark workshop and carries it back in. Climate-controlled storage is there if the room is not ready.

DetailsOur route into Millbrae
Forty to fifty-five minutes from the Newark atelier.
Our address in Newark is 5564 Newpark Mall Rd, roughly twenty-nine road miles from Millbrae. The van runs I-880 north, crosses on Highway 92 over the San Mateo–Hayward Bridge, then takes US-101 up to the Millbrae Avenue exit. Forty to fifty-five minutes when it is clear; the bridge approach and the airport interchange are what stretch it. The collection window is fixed as soon as you book, and we ring or text to confirm it.
