<p>Do you know if there is a link on the UMD site?</p>
<p>HAs anyone purchased through them? Satisfied?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>Here is the link to both bed loft and carpet companies:</p>

<p>The flyer for ordering the carpet is a link found on that page </p>

<p>There is a Home Depot about 3 miles from the campus. The carpet is much cheaper (and a better selection) then the campus supplier.</p>
<p>Thank you.</p>
<p>If you do purchase through the university, I would suggest getting a smaller size than the school recommends. We purchased the suggested 10’ X 12’ size, and it was quite a job to get the carpet put down in the August heat, in a room with no A/C. You have to take everything out of the room to do it right. A smaller one would have been much easier!</p>
<p>Ikea also has cheap carpet and is right down the road</p>
<p>We found a cheap remnant at our local Lowe’s before we headed to campus that was great, and lasted 2 years before it was “retired”!!!</p>
<p>Got the recommended carpet last year and it was bigger than needed and it was pretty annoying putting it under the furniture. This year my roommate and I are going to find a good way to position the furniture and then go to Ikea or order a cheaper/more appropriate carpet.</p>
