One thing to keep in mind when deciding how you are going to ease the cost of new carpet is if doing it yourself is really worth it
. If you are going to have to pay to rent equipment, and then have a great deal of pain for days afterward, it is always best to simply hire a professional to come in and do it for you. They know exactly how to do it, and all you have to do is admire your new carpet when the job is complete. That's so much easier than doing it yourself.
