How to Uncurl a Rug?

Roll the rug in the opposite direction and leave it rolled for several hours or overnight

Place the rug flat on a clean floor and weigh down the curled edges with heavy books or furniture

Use rug tape or double-sided carpet tape to secure the corners and edges

Apply gentle heat with a hair dryer on low while flattening the curled areas by hand

Lay the rug in direct sunlight for a short time if the material allows it

Dampen the back lightly with a spray bottle and press it flat

Place a non-slip rug pad underneath to help it stay flat

Steam the rug lightly if the fiber type is safe for steaming

Reverse-roll the corners individually if only the edges are curling

Keep the rug in a flat position for several days until it settles
