Carpet Disposal

floorinstall

WM in ft Walton charges 55.00 ton. I had a carpet store in Escondido a few years back and we had a dumpster on sight for the carpet and one for the pad. Some company came by and weighed and paid to pick up the pad but the carpet cost about 500.00 to empty the large roll off dumpster.

Carpet recycling is becoming a viable and preferred alternative for getting tid of old and unwanted carpet.

Looking for where to get rid of old carpet? Try CARE (www.carpetrecovery.org) - an industry trade group.

Another place is regional carpet recycling companies, such as CLEAR (http://www.landfillclear.com).

Still no luck in finding someone to take old carpet? Call a local carpet store. Odds are they can direct you to a local carpet recycling firm.

I just recycle it under the subfloor of all my flooring jobs. Great for sound insulation and warmth

I get charged to recycle.. No way I'm paying 60 dollars and up for them to reuse my old carpet, make new carpet and then sell it at 12 a square yard.. I rather throw it away instead of being charged. Yesterday I took pad to recycle, it took me 1 hour to load old pad, I hot 7 dollars for. Enough, screw this. I'm not recycling anything !!

We just ditch it on the edge of town. No just kidding. We dump it at the local dump. It costs about $70 per load.

I'll call in a small dumpster outfit. Costs $175 for a small dumpster and I can usually get 200yds of crapet in there. Plus assorted junk form the wood or laminate install.

I figure the time I save driving to the dump, gas and flat tires more than makes up for it. Plus the convenience is a no brainer. That is unless I happen to be going by the dump but thats usually not the case.
