Step 3 · Remove Carpet and Padding

Starting at one edge, grip the carpet with pliers or a carpet knife and pull it upwards and away from the subfloor. Work in sections, peeling back the carpet. Once the carpet is removed, remove the padding beneath it in the same manner. Roll up the carpet and padding as you go to make disposal easier.
