Flooring for shed

What do people use in garden shed as flooring. Is it just off cuts of old carpets? Am only using it for storage. Ta

    I imagine that the floor structure is OSB which can be left uncovered.
    Certainly would not carpet ; it will only get infested with all manner of insects and retain any moisture which might cause a musty smell.
    Forgotten but not gone.

    We use an offcut of lino left over from when we did our kitchen.
