Winter · November – February
A blanket that has been sitting in the wardrobe since March collects three things: dust mites (real, invisible, cause 20% of night-time itching), moisture-driven mildew spores, and old washing residue. Shaking it out on the balcony is not enough — professional shampoo or dry clean removes all three.
A clean blanket also traps 15–20% more warm air, so you get the same warmth on a lighter setting. That is why a "cold-feeling" 5-year-old blanket often feels new after one shampoo.

Not all blankets should be shampooed. Woollens and delicate quilts need dry cleaning. Modern comforters and cotton blankets are fine with shampoo.
Book in the second week of October, before demand kicks in. By late November, most cleaners are booked 4–6 days out and rates rise 15–20%. December is peak — expect a week's wait and premium pricing.
Solve24 cleaners quote per item on WhatsApp with pickup / drop clarified upfront. A double-bed cotton blanket shampoo is ₹500–₹900 all-in. Commission-based apps typically bill ₹900–₹1,500 for the same because of platform markup.
