Cardboard Packaging recycling
Cardboard packaging – from deliveries, food boxes or retail goods – is one of the easiest materials to recycle. Clean, dry cardboard is widely accepted in kerbside recycling and can be repulped into new paper products multiple times.
Contaminated or greasy cardboard (like pizza boxes) must be separated to maintain recycling quality.
How to recycle cardboard packaging
Remove plastic tape or labels and flatten boxes before placing them in the recycling bin. Avoid stacking wet or food-soiled cardboard with clean materials. Commercial quantities may require a dedicated collection service or compactor for efficient handling.
Sustainability benefits of recycling cardboard
Recycling cardboard reduces deforestation and conserves water and energy used in paper production. It also supports domestic recycling industries and helps minimise waste sent to landfill.
