Reuse
Cardboard boxes are ideal for moving and often in demand. Try advertising boxes for reuse on online re-use networks such as Freecycle or Freegle.
Recycle
Please make sure cardboard is flat, and remove tape and staples from the cardboard.
You can recycle cardboard:
- in your household recycling bin
- in the cardboard container at any Suffolk Recycling Centre.
Recycle as home compost
You can put cardboard into your home compost bin as a particularly good way of reducing smells and increasing the effectiveness of your compost bin, since it provides air pockets. It's more effective if scrunched into handful sized bits.
