Gift Box Cardboard Recycling

Posted in: Community Services, 12/17/2009 11:14 AM

After the gifts have been opened and returns have been made, are you wondering what to do with all those empty gift boxes and shipping cartons? Put them out on your recycling day for curbside pickup!

Place all types of cardboard (corrugated and pressed) at the curb on recycling day for pick-up. Due to limited space on the recycling truck, all cardboard is to be broken down to the size of your newspaper bundle. Newspaper and cardboard can be placed together in the same bag or bundled together. Do not nest boxes inside of each other. Remove cardboard from vacuum molded packaging and discard the plastic in the trash.

It's easy to go green and recycle!
