How to dispose of a carpet properly

A carpet that you want to discard should be properly disposed of for the love of the environment. The following rules apply:

• If it is a small carpet, throw it in the residual waste bin. So that it does not immediately fill up to the brim, you can take the carpet apart with a cutter.
• However, if the carpet is too big for the bin, it belongs in the bulky waste. In most cities, you can register bulky waste free of charge more than once a year. When registering, indicate how big the carpet is.
• Old carpets are also accepted at larger recycling centers. The best thing to do is to call your local recycling center to inquire. It is also best to find out whether there is a fee for carpet disposal or not.
