Here are 6 useful ways to get you started:
a) Remove any non-paper box packaging materials like the packing peanuts, air pillows, or Styrofoam.
b) You do not need to bother about removing any tape or labels from your corrugated boxes. They will get removed in the recycling process.
c) If the box is dented, bent ripped or damaged, this is fine. It is still recyclable as long as it is dry and clean.
d) Keep the boxes dry.
e) Keep the boxes clean and away from food products like oil and grease. A highly food-stained box is not good for recycling.
f) Flatten the corrugated boxes or rip them up before putting them inside the recycling bin or cart. This will save extra space.
