eccedenza/extra
Explanation:
secondo me è la moquette in eccesso (di solito una manciata di cm) rispetto alla misura richiesta che viene fornito incluso nel prezzo per permettere di installare la moquette da muro a muro con precisione. Viene steso e poi tagliato (cut off).
es: mi servono 4 metri, mi danno 4,05 metri.

Next, they roll out, measure, mark, and cut the carpet, allowing for 2 to 3 inches of extra carpet for the final fitting. ... They then cut off the excess carpet.

scampoli


Explanation:
Appropriate quantities of cut-off is to be included in the unit rates - when carpet [it is the same with textiles] is being laid, it is usual that the lengthes of carpet used do not match exactly the length of the material avaiblable - these extra unusable bits are cut-offs
[example from Youtube
Fabric textile cut offs shredding - YouTube
www.youtube.com/watch?v=emNjEefwjTw].
These have to be taken into account when getting the basic material in procuring more carpet that the actual surface.
In textiles these cut-offs are scampoli and that should fit carpet cut-off too.
