Rug Rentals for Film, TV, Photo Shoots & Events
Handmade rug rentals for film and TV productions, set decorators, prop stylists, photographers, event planners and home stagers — from our showroom in Freeport, Long Island, New York.
When a scene needs a rug that reads as real on camera, a printed or machine-made copy shows it. BestRugPlace / Harooni Originals rents genuine hand-knotted and hand-woven rugs — Persian, tribal, antique, modern, flat-weave and oversized — for film and TV sets, commercials, editorial and product photo shoots, events and staged homes. Every rug we rent is one we own, kept in our own Freeport, NY warehouse and showroom, so the rug you pull is the rug that shows up on set.
Call 516-330-1100 to check availability, or send a rental inquiry with your dates, sizes and look — we’ll pull options and send photos or video.
Trusted by New York productions. Our rugs have been rented for major feature films, network and premium cable TV series, and studio pilots shot in New York. Set decorators and art departments come back to us for large-format Persian and antique rugs that read beautifully on camera. References available to productions on request.
