Cleaning Service for Wall Tents?
« on: November 21, 2021, 10:52:50 AM »
Hi Forum!

I have a 12x14 canvas wall tent that has been heavily used in the last three years.  This season was particularly hard on it and I'm wondering if there's a way to have it professionally "washed".  Anyone have a lead on something like this?

Thanks!

 Never  heard of a Tent Wash although I have thought that would be a good side job if I were younger.

Check out the wall tent tips and tricks thread.

I wash my three tents. I set them up and use Dawn soap on them than let sun dry. I do it every year.

Dirt on Tents can get built up especially if to don’t use a fly over them when in use.

Thank you, we do the same every year but thought I'd give it a little extra this year!  I can't find anything online so I wouldnt imagine there's much...

Give Rainier tents in tukwilla a call
I had them do some repairs on mine a few years ago they may offer something like you’re looking for

I’m not aware of any place that does this professionally. You might try Rainier tents like mentioned, or a Tacoma Tent & Awning & ask if they can point you somewhere
