Carpet Recycling

Why Carpet Recycling Matters to Us

At The Inside Track, sustainability isn’t just a trend — it’s a responsibility. That’s why we’re committed to helping you recycle the carpet you use for trade shows and events.

Every square foot we divert from landfills helps reduce waste, conserve resources, and protect the planet for future generations.

We’re proud to have customers like you who care about making a difference. Together, we’re laying the groundwork for a more sustainable future.

Instead of paying to ship and store your customer’s carpet and padding after a show in Las Vegas, the West Coast or the Midwest, recycle it!

Your customers will love that 92% of their carpet and padding will be recycled, and you’ll know that you’re keeping carpet and padding out of a landfill.

Recycling is easy:

1. Prepare the carpet. Make sure there’s NO carpet tape on the back of the carpet. Roll it up (no trash please!) without the core. It can be shipped skidded or loose, no problem.

2. Schedule delivery. Call or email the appropriate contact below, depending on where your show was held, at least 48 hours before you want it delivered to schedule delivery.

3. Ship it. Choose the appropriate location below and ship the carpet and padding.
