Many Minneapolis carpet cleaning companies offer different services. They do not only clean carpet. If you have a question or are not sure if a certain service is offered, a simple phone call should suffice.
Depending on the carpet service you need will depend on the type of cleaning done. One of those is steam cleaning. Another form of cleaning is shampooing the carpet. One of these may work better for you than the other depending on the soil involved.
By using shampoo the professional can coat the soiled area with shampoo and let it absorb the dirt underneath that has been ground in. This is accomplished by allowing the cleanser to stay in place for a bit of time. The professional can tell you about how long it may need to stay. Once it is dry you can vacuum it up very simply. This form of cleaning will leave some residue behind and this may continue to build over time. Again, the cleaner can tell you what to expect.
With steam cleaning you are only using water. The professional heats the water to a preset temperature and then cleans your carpet using steam. This process is very fast. It only takes about 20 minutes or so depending on how many rooms you are having done and how soiled the carpet is. One pass of the heavy duty steam cleaner they use usually does it though. Having the carpet cleaned in this manner leaves absolutely no residue because on water is being used.
If you need help in making the decision any carpet professional can help you. That is what they are there for. Explain your situation to them, describing any areas of high traffic or dirt and they can tell you which cleaning will work in your situation. Every situation is unique.

They have companies that clean upholstery, leather, oriental rugs, draperies, etc. They can offer you things such as Scotch Guard to protect your carpet in the future. Some offer pet stain and/or odor removal and minor carpet repair. Depending on the service needed, you will need to take into consideration the need to pay extra.
