How to Prepare For Our Visit
A bit of prep helps us move quickly:
➣ Clear small furniture and breakables; unplug electronics
➣ Set aside the area rug items you’re keeping
➣ Tell us whether your subfloor is hardwood floors, concrete floors, or laminate flooring
➣ Flag tight stairs, turns, or low clearances
➣ Keep nearby tools like a power washer or leaf blowers out of pathways
➣ If this is part of a larger home renovation project, share schedules so pathways stay open
If you prefer curbside pickup rather than in-home pickup, let us know. Local bulk trash days and community recycling services can also influence timing.
What Our Carpet Removal Covers
We protect surrounding finishes and prep the subfloor for your next step:
➣ Full-room or partial removal, including closets and stairs
➣ Tack strip and staple removal with hand pullers or a carpet staple remover
➣ Carpet padding lift-out and bagging
➣ Threshold and transition removal as needed
➣ Sweep-ready finish so your next trade can get started
We tailor our approach to your surface:
➣ Hardwood floors: Gentle techniques to avoid gouges; targeted adhesive remover to address glue residue
➣ Concrete floors: We cut, roll, and scrape away remaining adhesive with a floor scraper; if needed, we use a demo hammer or mini crowbar for stubborn tack strip pins
➣ Laminate flooring: Careful edge work to protect panels and trim
➣ Stairs: Extra care around each stair riser and nose for clean results
We keep routes clear and protect doors, frames, and wall space throughout the process.
Our Tools and Safety Practices
The Junk Tycoons select pro-grade tools and PPE to work efficiently and safely:
➣ Utility knife for clean section cuts, carpet puller, and hand pullers for stubborn areas
➣ Pry bar or mini crowbar for tack strips; carpet staple remover for staples
➣ Floor scraper to scrape away adhesive; targeted adhesive remover for glue residue
➣ Demo hammer used sparingly on concrete pins
➣ Knee pads, safety gloves, and a dust mask as part of our standard safety equipment
➣ Tape measure for accurate pre-cutting and staging
➣ If you’re refinishing hardwood floors, a flooring pro may later use a floor polisher/sander
Thinking about tackling a small area yourself? For DIY jobs, consult your local flooring supply store or a home improvement retailer like Home Depot for tool rentals and guidance. Always wear a dust mask, knee pads, and safety gloves.

Our Carpet Removal Process
➣ Free estimate and plan: Share photos, room counts, and stair details for upfront pricing. Ask us about carpet recycling options in your area.
➣ Arrival and protection: We review the plan, set basic protection, and confirm disposal regulations and current recycling programs.
➣ Tear-out and sectioning: We cut with a utility knife, pull with a carpet puller or hand pullers, roll, tape, and bag. Padding is bagged and staged.
➣ Tack strips and staples: We pry tack strips with a pry bar and remove staples with a carpet staple remover. We can lightly patch surface nail pulls at the subfloor.
➣ Adhesive cleanup: We scrape away loose glue with a floor scraper and spot-treat with adhesive remover when appropriate. Heavy refinishing or floor polisher/sander work is handled by your flooring specialist.
➣ Load and route: We load materials for transport and, when possible, take them to a recycling center first, then use sustainable disposal per waste management guidelines.
Order tracking is available on request for larger projects.
FAQs About Our Carpet Removal
Can we recycle carpet, or does it all go to the landfill?
Many recycling programs accept certain carpet types and padding, though availability varies. When possible, we route materials to a recycling center first and use sustainable disposal options to reduce landfill harm.
What tools do we use during carpet removal?
Our toolkit includes a utility knife, carpet puller, hand pullers, pry bar, mini crowbar, carpet staple remover, floor scraper, and tape measure. We also use knee pads, safety gloves, and a dust mask. For glue residue, we use adhesive remover, and a demo hammer is used sparingly on stubborn concrete pins.
How do we price carpet removal?
We provide upfront pricing based on room count, stair work, access, and disposal logistics. Share photos and measurements for accuracy. If special handling is required, we outline any disposal fees in the estimate before work begins.
Do we require a roll-off dumpster rental?
No. We handle the hauling according to local waste management guidelines, and we do not offer roll-off dumpster rentals. If your neighborhood has bulk trash days, let us know so we can coordinate timing.
What should you do before we arrive?
Remove small items, set aside area rug pieces you’re keeping, and ensure clear pathways. If your home was built before 1978 or you suspect lead-based paint on trim, review Common Sources of Lead and consult official resources like Lead Contractor Search, Lead Individual License Search, Lead Resources, Contractor Information, Health Care Professionals, and Educational Materials. When in doubt, hire a qualified pro for lead-safe work.
