In detail

Stop delivery packaging taking over

Boxes can fill stockrooms, corridors and loading areas soon after regular deliveries arrive. We arrange cardboard recycling collection for commercial premises in London, keeping bulky packaging separate from residual rubbish. Flattening boxes reduces the space they occupy and makes the stream easier to present. Cardboard should also be reasonably dry and free from food contamination before collection. We assess your delivery pattern, storage capacity, and normal packaging volume to plan suitable days, with extra attention to seasonal periods when deliveries increase.

Match collections to your delivery cycle

A dedicated cardboard stream is useful when packaging volume is too high for a general mixed recycling arrangement. Tell us which days deliveries arrive, where flattened material can be stored, and how access works at the collection point. We can then shape the frequency around the rate at which cardboard builds up rather than waiting for storage to overflow. Your quote reflects the volume, route, collection window, and access requirements. Separating clean cardboard supports recycling and reduces the amount placed in general waste.

Do boxes need to be flattened before collection?

Yes, flattening boxes saves storage space and makes the collection stream easier to handle. Keep the prepared cardboard at the agreed point and avoid tying unrelated waste or packaging into the bundle.

Can wet or food-stained cardboard be recycled?

Cardboard should be reasonably dry and free from food contamination. If your premises produce affected packaging, keep it separate and tell us what is involved so we can discuss the appropriate waste stream.

Can collection frequency follow our delivery days?

Yes. We consider delivery schedules, typical box numbers, seasonal changes, and available storage. These details help us place collections after high-volume periods rather than using a pattern unrelated to your output.
