cardboard recycling

Corrugated material recovery

Cardboard recycling is the process of collecting and reprocessing used cardboard into new paper products.

Most curbside programs accept cardboard, though boxes should be flattened and tape removed: Break down your cardboard recycling before putting it out.

Corrugated cardboard from shipping boxes is among the most commonly recycled materials.
