What Recycled Carpet Becomes
People ask the same question every time: “What happens to the carpet after you pick it up?” Fair. Nobody wants their “recycling” to be a feel-good story that ends in a landfill. After processing, recovered Read more

Unlike general waste processors, we focus exclusively on carpet and pad materials. Bulk processing allows us to offer lower costs compared to landfill fees.
We keep thousands of tons of carpet away from landfills, reducing waste and helping to repurpose otherwise problematic materials into useful, sustainable resources.
We are adept at handling large and complex projects and provide efficient service for a smooth, hassle-free carpet disposal process from start to finish.
Georgia Recycling and Waste Control (GRWC) was founded in the mid-1990s by Amir Sahebdivani. He began collecting carpet to supply a large chemical recycling facility in Augusta, Georgia, but that plant remained open only briefly.
Shortly after, GRWC formed a partnership with Wellman, Inc., a large plastic processor in South Carolina. Together, they developed an early mechanical carpet-recycling process, which was installed at the GRWC warehouse in Atlanta. Over the years, we have improved and refined that process into the leading solution it is today.
In 2006, Kent Singleton joined Georgia Recycling and Waste Control. With his expertise and maintenance background, Kent elevated the process to achieve new heights and exceed targets in quality and production.
In 2009, the decision was made to dismantle the old processing line and move it to a new facility; Wellman’s plant in South Carolina.
In 2012, Hose Divani joined the team, bringing waste-industry experience that helped accelerate the company’s expansion. In 2014, we outgrew our space and moved to our current location.

The dynamic shifted and so did the name. In 2009, Georgia Recycling and Waste Control became Georgia Carpet Recovery Center (GCRC) when Kent and Amir became official business partners. In 2014, GCRC moved from Atlanta to the neighboring city of East Point.
