   Before beginning, ensure you are wearing appropriate safety gear including a dust mask, safety glasses, and work gloves. Start by locating a seam or an edge of the carpet, preferably in a corner, to get a good grip. Using a utility knife, carefully cut the carpet into manageable strips or sections, especially in large rooms, to make rolling and carrying easier. Once cut, begin to pull up the carpet from the subfloor, rolling it tightly as you go. Repeat this process for the carpet pad underneath, detaching it from the subfloor and rolling it up. Dispose of the rolled-up carpet and pad properly.

   Once all carpet, pad, residue, and tack strips are removed, the subfloor will likely be covered in dust, small debris, and loose carpet fibers. Use a shop vacuum (a wet/dry vac is ideal) to thoroughly clean the entire subfloor surface. Pay close attention to corners, edges, and any cracks where debris might accumulate. After vacuuming, a final sweep with a broom and dustpan can pick up any remaining fine dust. This step ensures the subfloor is clean and ready for the installation of new flooring.
