At this point it is possible that the carpet from that event is already spoken for. Of course the people who want it may not want it all.

A pickup won't really work for a full field worth or even a 1/2 field worth. The carpet is 15' wide and over 70' long and there are 2 pieces that size. You could make it work with a van as most will accommodate 12' if it extends between the seats.

For the smaller pieces we give away we fold it in half to make it roughly 8' wide but that really only works until you get to about a 20' long piece. Beyond that it gets a little unwieldy to roll.
