Wasn't too bad Don, working around and moving the furniture wasn't quite as bad as I first thought, bookcase was the hardest part...

I cut the carpet up in small manageable pieces and rolled them up. The truck is loaded with as much as I can put under the tonneau cover right now, I'll take it off Saturday morning and top it up with the rest of the carpet and take it to the dump when it opens in the morning ..

I thought of doing that, but it would be easier to move the bed and just roll it up and get it out

Depending on how big the carpet is it gets heavy and awkward to move it through the house, I have small rolls and duct taped it to hold it in a roll..will stack it like cord wood in the back of the truck...lol
