What is the optimal method for recycling cardboard?
How Cardboard is Recycled
For cardboard and paper to be recyclable, they must be dry. Wetting cardboard or paper can damage the fibers, reducing its value and making it more difficult to recycle. Additionally, moist materials will weigh more and make the process of recycling more expensive. Make the cardboard boxes flat.
How should cardboard boxes be recycled?
– Cardboard that is wet cannot be recycled. – If you are setting it at the curb for collection, bring it inside or cover it if it is raining. Similarly, greasy cardboard such as pizza or doughnut boxes cannot be recycled. – Similarly to greasy and wet cardboard, oil- or chemical-stained cardboard does not belong in the recycling bin.
How do you dispose of garbage, cardboard, and recyclables?
- Place only bagged trash in the dumpsters, not open-top trash cans.
- Large open-top container contains ONLY larger things
- PLEASE recycle in accordance with the instructions
- Boxes should be broken down and placed in cardboard-only trash.
- Do not leave any goods outside your apartment door or in the corridor (this includes personal items or shoes).
