My whole family does hardwood flooring. My grandpa & I were tearing out song carpet & pad. Maybe one bedrooms worth. Not really worth paying how much the dump would charge you for a small load. We were working in, well not the best part of town. My grandpa says let's roll it up & put a free sign on it out front, see if someone takes it. Sure as shit the next day that old, nasty carpet was gone. Pad too

There's always someone that can make use of anything. Really.

Maybe they used that carpet to make stoppers or cushions for the legs of chairs, tables or whatever, not as a carpet but they put that to good use.

Sorry, English is not my native, do you call "legs" at the bottom part of chairs? 😂

Haha yes you're correct. It might work. I would guess maybe carpet under a vehicle or in their garage. I don't know, it was pretty gross carpet tho
