# Rug Source

> Rug Source is an ecommerce website for buying area rugs, including Persian, Oriental, antique, vintage, modern, Turkish, kilim, runner, and rug pad products. The site focuses on catalog discovery, product detail pages, customer information pages, and trade membership registration.

Primary domain: https://rugsource.com

Sitemap index: https://rugsource.com/sitemap/sitemap_index.xml

Key sitemap sections include category, product, and rug-style sitemap files. Follow the sitemap for broad coverage of product and category URLs.

The main shopping experience lives under `https://rugsource.com/rugs/...`. Product detail pages use `https://rugsource.com/rugs/{slug}`. The live navigation also exposes major category landing pages at root-level slugs such as `/persian-rugs`, `/area-rug`, `/oriental-rugs`, `/antique-rugs`, and `/special-discount-rugs`.

Category and filter landing pages also live under `/rugs/...` and may include filters such as category, size, color, style, shape, origin, weave type, pattern, pile, pile height, and softness. Legacy `/shop/...`, category, and tag URLs often redirect to the canonical `/rugs/...` structure.

Top utility navigation includes Home, Showroom, About Us, FAQ, Blog, Area Rugs, Return Policy, and Shipping Policy. Primary shopping navigation includes All Rugs, Persian, Oriental, Antique, and End Of Season Clearance. Footer links include FAQ, Return Policy, Contact Us, Shipping Policy, Privacy Policy, Trade Membership, and Happy Customers.

Useful public flows include gift registration and selection under `https://rugsource.com/gifts/...`, customer testimonial submission under `https://rugsource.com/testimonials/upload/{key}`, and local landing pages such as `https://rugsource.com/rug-store-charlotte-nc`.

Business details surfaced on the live site include phone `+1-980-422-4080` and support hours `Mon-Fri 8am - 5pm` and `Sat 9am - 4pm`. The homepage describes Rug Source as a Charlotte, North Carolina rug retailer with a large catalog of Persian, Oriental, modern, antique, and related rug types.

Avoid or treat as non-content private or account routes under `https://rugsource.com/my-account/...`, authentication routes such as `/login`, `/register`, `/logout`, `/reset-password`, and OAuth callbacks, upload and AJAX-style endpoints, delivery-time JSON endpoints, and simulator routes under `/simulator/...`.

Prefer canonical public pages over redirected legacy URLs. Prefer canonical slashless URLs such as `/about-us` and `/faq`; the live site may redirect trailing-slash variants. Do not rely on simulator pages for core site understanding.
