Pushchair cleaning

Pushchairs take a lot of abuse over the years. Toddlers aren't fussy about dropping snacks and drinks, so crumbs accumulate along with liquids, leaving a paste that soaks into the fabrics. Sticky food, ice cream, juice, cake - you name it, it all ends up on the fabric and in the creases.

And if you go anywhere near a beach or sand pit, your pushchair will attract this like a magnet! In the end, your pushchair will become grubby and stained. What's more, bacteria and mould can thrive, which can cause sickness and skin rashes.

Valet Queens is familiar with all of these scenarios, which is why we offer a dedicated pushchair cleaning service.

Why Use A Professional Pushchair Cleaner?

Wiping down a pushchair once in a while is fine, but it doesn't remove all of the dirt and bacteria. Eventually, the fabrics will begin to smell bad and look grimy. Few parents would be happy for their child to ride around in something that looks and smells this way.

In cases like this, it's wise to get your pushchair deep-cleaned.

Where do those hours, days and weeks go? As a parent, you have many other priorities that demand your time and attention. Setting aside time to give your pushchair a thorough clean never seems to happen, and the dirt keeps accumulating. We covered in detail how to clean a pushchair in one of our blogs if you really do want to try it yourself.

When it becomes too bad, Valet Queens will freshen up your pushchair for you, saving you time and effort.

More people these days are seeking out pre-loved items as it saves money and helps the environment. Perhaps you've been given a pushchair, but it has seen better days and is in dire need of attention before you use it. When it comes to baby items, you need to be confident that the product is safe and hygienic for your precious child to use.

Valet Queens will restore your pre-loved pushchair using our skills and experience, so the item will look as if you just brought it home from the shop!

Brand new good quality baby items don't come cheap. If you've finished with your pushchair and want to make some extra cash, you stand a better chance of making a quick sale if the item looks in great condition and smells fresh.

Having the pushchair professionally cleaned by Valet Queens is a great idea, and any costs involved will be recouped as you will be able to charge more.

Maybe it's been a while, but now you are expecting another bundle of joy. All of your old baby equipment has been stored in a cupboard or up in the loft, and now you've realised that the fabric on the pushchair is spotted with mould* and mildew, and it smells musty.

You could throw it in a skip and buy a new one, or you could get Valet Queens to deep clean it for you. It's a much more economic option, and it brings brilliant results!

*Black mould is a real worry, as the spores have been known to cause or worsen asthma attacks, so it is never wise to risk your child's health by using any item that's infected.

How Do You Clean Pushchairs?

We employ a range of methods depending on the materials involved.

Here's a basic breakdown of what's involved:

  • Scrubbing and polishing wheels. These parts are often neglected, but they are exposed to more dirt than the rest of the pushchair. Our team will remove the wheels and scrub them clean before applying a polish that will restore their original shine. All metal parts will be washed and treated with WD-40 to prevent corrosion and keep them moving freely.
  • Cleaning the fabrics. The fabric areas are brushed down to loosen any caked-on debris and dirt, and the entire item is hoovered thoroughly to get rid of dust, sand, crumbs, etc. Any loose covers are removed and washed by hand or machine, whichever is deemed the best option. Any non-removable fabrics are treated in situ with a gentle but powerful cleaning solution. A disinfectant is also applied to kill any lurking bacteria.
  • Cleaning the frame. All parts of the frame are washed down with detergent and polished to restore their shine. Moving parts, clips and joints will be checked to ensure they are free from grime or obstructions (like grit or pebbles) and a lubricant applied if required. This process is very much the same as cleaning a pram frame.
  • Steam cleaning. If the team believes it to be the best option, they will steam clean your pushchair. This gives a thorough deep clean that removes most dirt and stains, and it also destroys mould spores and bacteria. This process is very much the same as steam cleaning a pram.

We only use child-friendly, non-toxic cleaning solutions that are safe for the environment. You can rest assured that once your pushchair has been cleaned that there will be no harmful residue left over

What If The Pushchair Is Badly Stained?

In most cases, we are able to remove the majority of stains. However, some stains - particularly those made by black mould, or that have been left untreated for a long time - may still be faintly visible after cleaning. Even so, the fabrics will be clean and safe to use.

On average, we usually advise customers to allow between 48 and 72 hours to perform a full deep clean. If you need the pushchair in a hurry, we offer an express service at an extra charge, although the precise timing will depend on the current workload.

We only undertake minor repairs during the cleaning process. Any major damage will need specialist attention or replacement parts from the manufacturers. Please communicate with us regarding this issue if you have any questions and to discover more about our prices.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, steam cleaning is a safe and effective way to clean a pushchair. The high temperature and pressure of the steam can effectively remove dirt, grime, and other types of stains without shrinking or damaging the material. Steam cleaning is also a good choice for removing germs and bacteria, making it a useful option for cleaning pushchairs that have been used by young children or have come into contact with germs. To steam clean a pushchair, you will need a steam cleaner and a suitable cleaning solution. Simply follow the manufacturer's instructions to apply the steam to the pushchair, and be sure to allow the pushchair to air dry completely after cleaning to prevent any residual moisture from causing damage or attracting dirt.

Yes, it is generally acceptable to use a hose to clean a pushchair as long as you use lukewarm water and a mild, soft soap. The hose can be a convenient way to apply water to the pushchair and rinse away dirt and grime. Just be sure to use a gentle stream of water and avoid using hot water, as high temperatures can damage the pushchair or shrink the fabric

No, it is generally not recommended to use a jet wash to clean a pushchair. Jet washers produce high pressure water that can stretch or damage the fabric of the pushchair. It is better to use a hose or low pressure cleaning method to avoid damaging the pushchair. If you do decide to use a jet wash, make sure it has a low pressure setting that is similar to a hose and be very careful when using it to avoid tearing or stretching the fabric.
