A carpet loading system for easily loading, transporting and unloading a roll of carpet without requiring significant physical exertion by an individual. The inventive device includes an elongated frame, a pair of rear wheels, a pair of front caster wheels, a plurality of support rollers rotatably attached within the frame, an endless belt surround the support rollers forming an inclined plane with respect to the ground, an elongated handle extending from the rear portion of the frame, a first motor driving the belt and a second motor driving the rear wheels. Preferably, a plurality of side rollers are positioned about the sides of the endless belt to prevent the carpet from rolling off of the cart during loading and transporting. The drive axle between the pair of rear wheels preferably has a differential to allow easy turning when a heavy carpet roll is placed thereupon. A stopping switch is preferably positioned at the end of the elongated handle to terminate power to the first motor when the carpet roll is substantially centered upon the frame.
