My buddy works for a religious collage in Chicago and called me up and asked if I wanted some free rubber anti-fatigue tiles. Well me being me I said HELL YEA!!! Well I went to his work and he had a pallet full of them, I haven't counted but its easily 300 and some are still in the box and there is also the end strips. They are like grinded up tires/rubber that are melted togeather.

The story goes that they were installed in a field house with wood floors 6 months ago and people were scuffing the wood so they pulled them up and sat in the storage for 5 months. I figured maybe there was 20 or so but was pleasantly surprised to say the least when I seen the entire pallet!!!! So my buddy and I both filled our cars as tight as we could get and drove them to my house. Not a bad haul for FREE!! YAY:skullflag:

I am going to tile my entire garage and my neighbor wants 20 for his garage, then sell the rest on CL. Thanks for looking, HH!!!:skullflag::skullflag::skullflag:

Nice, that's about $3500+ worth of material. If I was near you I could install it for ya. That kegerator has me wanting a cold one and I don't even drink. 8-) At least you got the tiles, they are easy to handle. I recently installed (with urethane adhesive) 500 ft of 1/2" sheet rubber in a refreshment stand on a golf course. At 4 feet wide, a 45 lineal foot roll is very heavy.

Nice find!!!!

I've had commercial carpet squares in the past, and they have always sold quickly at the flea market.
