Eating at the Pell City Steakhouse and
noticed some pallets of old carpet squares sitting outside our window.
Asked Bruce (our waiter, we eat there regular) about them and he said
the owner had replaced the carpet in there a few weeks back and was slowly throwing the old stuff away. I asked if I could
come back and get them all and was told yes! So finished the trip
and dropped Cat off at her mom's then came back and loaded the truck.
Ended up with over 1300 sq ft of industrial grade carpet 20" squares.
Toyota Tacoma was DRAGGING coming the 35 miles home. The really worn
out stuff I am using to carpet the muddy areas in the drive way and
under the work tents in the yard. Better stuff is going in the workshop
after I use a few pieces in the camper!
Always pays to ask about stuff, as a lot of folks have to pay to get rid of things that still have quite a bit of life left.
