A carpet remover is provided for quickly removing glued-down carpets. The carpet remover includes a rotary power source, particularly a power drive, a take-up shaft, and a coupling mechanism for rotatively connecting the shaft to the power source. The shaft has a means for securing an edge of the carpeting to the shaft. Thus, when the shaft is rotated by the power drive, the carpet is pulled from the floor and rolled up on the shaft. In a preferred embodiment, the shaft is sectional so that the overall shaft length can be changed in response to how firmly the carpet is adhered to the floor. In another preferred embodiment, the shaft can be broken down into arcuate segments and removed while the stripped carpet is still rolled up.
