Buying carpet at Home Depot? Well....

   For the Home Depot in Columbia Missouri. It was a very pleasant, easy deal, the guy working in the floor department is a very knowledgeable, friendly fellow. On the way to Home Depot I called them to see if  they had a certain type in stock, yep they did. The price was unbeatable, and yea u looked. They let me pay over the phone, they had it cut rolled up on a cart ready. It was not what you usually go through getting carpet from one of the big names.

How to take up carpet.

Here is the way a professional floorcovering installer takes up old carpet. Pull the carpet up around the edges. You may need a pair of pliers to get ahold of it. After all the edges are free cut the carpet in strip 2-3 ft wide. How ever big you want to carry. Then just roll them up and carry them out.
