Drop-offs and recyclers that take cardboard boxes and paper, including bulk commercial loads. Hours, fees, and accepted items change, so call or check the listing before you load up.
Where can I drop off a lot of cardboard in Branford, CT?
Municipal drop-off sites and transfer stations usually take flattened boxes free. For large commercial volumes, a recycler may provide a baler or container and sometimes pays for clean bales.
Does cardboard need to be clean?
Flatten boxes and remove packing foam and plastic. Normal tape and labels are fine, and a little grease on a pizza box is accepted by most programs. Wet or soaked cardboard is not.
Do recyclers pay for cardboard?
Only in bulk. Baled, clean corrugated cardboard is a commodity, but household quantities are not worth paying for.
