If you're getting new carpet, you might be wondering what to do with your old carpet. Yeah, it's heaving, big, and who in the world would want it, right? Throwing it away seems wasteful, and it is as there are a lot of recycling for old carpet. If you want to find a place near you that takes old carpet for recycling, check out the CARE site at http://www.carpetrecovery.org/. This is a carpet industry initiative that is helping to recycle old carpets. You can go there and they'll tell you the closest carpet recycling site near you.
