Community Involvement


Cell Phones for Soldiers

Because people are kind enough to donate used cell phones for recycling, Cell Phones for Soldiers are able to provide an average of 13,000 prepaid calling cards to troops each week.
The cell phones are recycled and the funds used to purchase calling cards for the soldiers. Helping our troops call home is a goal of the Berquist family and ReCellular, a recycling facility based in Michigan. Taylor Carpet One is proud to have all Southwest Florida locations serve as a collection point for Cell Phones for Soldiers.

Because support for breast cancer research is so essential to eradicating the disease, Carpet One Floor & Home has made a commitment to contribute funds through our Carpet One Floor & Home Welcomes Your Support campaign. Carpet One Floor & Home donates 25% of the purchase price of our exclusive pink ribbon welcome mats to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation (US) and the Canadian Cancer Society (CAN) in support of breast cancer research. Pink Ribbon welcome mats are available year round in participating Carpet One Floor & Home stores and come in a variety of designs for every season.

Our Commitment to Animal Welfare
Our love of animals has led us to support several animal friendly causes. Most recently, we donated to the Save the Tiger Fund in conjunction with our new product launch, Tigressa Softstyle. It was a natural fit for us to spread the word about the Save the Tiger Fund and do what we could to help save the animals whose majestic beauty inspired our new line. We have also partnered with animal welfare charities such as the American Human Society, the Canadian Federation for Human Societies and the Delta Society through the Muddiest Buddies campaigns which featured our worry-free Relax, It’s Lees carpet that is perfect for pet owners.

A Green Commitment
In addition to providing our customers with a wide selection of Green Select products, we are also committed to taking action in our stores and communities to actively make the world a cleaner and healthier place. We feel this is an important part of being responsible citizens.

We are making a green commitment in our stores and offices by focusing on educating our employees and business partners; conserving resources and reducing waste; and encouraging recycling and green maintenance practices.

For the past three years, Carpet One Floor & Home locations throughout North America have also teamed together with their communities to clean up and beautify communities in celebration of National Green Select Day.
