Ask your moving company if they would like the boxes back for reuse. If not, you can recycle corrugated cardboard boxes at the curb. Please break the boxes down into 3 X 3 foot sections and bundle if possible. There is no limit to the number of corrugated cardboard boxes you set out, as long as they’re prepared according to the instructions above.

Pizza boxes are acceptable for recycling if clean, but otherwise should be put in the garbage.

Packing peanuts cannot be recycled, but the UPS Store, and other mailing companies frequently accept packing peanuts for reuse. If you can’t give the packing peanuts away, please seal them in a plastic bag before putting them in your garbage can. This will prevent them from spilling out and littering your street when the garbage cart is emptied.
