Reclamation and Recylcing

Estimating the Cost of Reclamation

Reclamation is becoming cost competitive in many regions. When comparing the price of reclamation versus landfill disposal, be sure to deduct the typical charges for disposal (landfill or incineration) such as tipping fees and hauling. And of course, it is also suggested that you consider the social benefits for your business and community in which you live and work. To estimate the cost for the INVISTA™ Carpet Reclamation Program, your Antron® Fiber Consultant or service provider will ask you a few questions to better understand project scope.

  • Is the used carpet broadloom or modular tile?
  • How many square feet of used carpet are to be reclaimed?
  • Where is the project located?
  • What is your schedule for carpet removal?

Next, the customer can choose one of two ways to handle logistics:

  1. The customer can have INVISTA take all logistical steps. This includes an on-site container for collecting used carpet as well as picking up and shipping the loaded container to the INVISTA™ Carpet Reclamation Center located in Calhoun, Georgia. Pricing is based on logistics and reclamation.


  2. Or, the customer can handle the logistics. This includes loading and shipping the used carpet directly to the INVISTA™ Carpet Reclamation Center. INVISTA will unload the carpet for reclamation. Customers may prefer this option when they have access to their own transportation. Pricing includes the reclamation fee, which is based on total pounds of all material shipped.

Specific information provided by the customer will assist the Antron® Fiber Consultant or preferred service provider in estimating the cost of reclaiming the used carpet. Locate your representative online or call us at 1-877-5-ANTRON.
