2. Find out if you can recycle on premise. If you rent your space, check your lease to make sure you can place additional bins out back. If you can, make sure there’s enough room throughout the space and/or parking lot.

3. Train staff to safely cut up boxes and lay them flat in the cardboard bin. That will reduce empty space between loosely packed boxes so you can fit more in for each pick up. In turn, you’ll save money and look more organized and clean to your customers and employees.

4. Put only cardboard in the cardboard recycling bin. Don’t contaminate the pile with other bags, bottles or cans. Also make an effort to keep it as dry as possible.

5. Ask your recycler whether he or she accepts waxed cardboard from foodstuff deliveries. Waxed cardboard must be separated from normal cardboard because the wax contaminates pulp during reprocessing.
