The details, before we arrive

Carpet Removal, without the guesswork.

What to expect, how to prepare, and options for the things you’re ready to let go.

How carpet removal works

Tell us the rooms and send a photo of one. We send a price per room for rip-out and haul, or a flat price if it is already rolled.

On the day, we cut the carpet into strips that carry, pull the padding, pull the tack strips and pull the staples. We sweep the subfloor. Everything goes on the trailer and to the county facility. Your flooring installer walks into a clean room.

When people call for this

Before new flooring goes in and the installer charges extra for removal. After a basement floods. During a rental turnover when the carpet is past saving. In an estate cleanout when the whole house is being redone.

Old flooring

Some older houses in Richmond have vinyl or tile under the carpet that may contain asbestos. If we see that, we stop and tell you. It needs a licensed abatement contractor, not a hauler. Hardwood and modern tile we can quote separately, by weight.

Carpet Removal questions

Do you pull the carpet or just haul it?

Either. We can rip it out, pull the padding, pull the tack strips and staples, and leave the subfloor ready. Or, if your installer already rolled it up, we just haul the rolls.

How do you price carpet removal?

By the room. Tell us the rooms and whether it is a rip-out or a haul, and we send one price.

Can you remove wet carpet from a flooded basement?

Contact us with your ZIP code, job details and preferred date to check pickup availability.

Do you take the old hardwood or tile too?

We can quote it. Tile and hardwood are heavier work and priced by weight. Send a photo.
