Cardboard Recycling tips:
Break down all boxes into their flat packed state to maximise storage, also making collections more cost effective.
Try to keep cardboard clean, dry and free from food waste. All types of card can be recycled; excluding the types that are laminated (have a glossy appearance).
Stack the sacks one on top of the other to save space when multiple sacks are on site.
