How do I get rid of Cardboard?

Recycle

Please flatten and cut into pieces no larger than 3' x 3' then place in, under or next to your recycling container. Do not tie cardboard bundles together, they should be loose when placed near your blue bin.

Residents looking to recycle small quantities of cardboard may bring it (cut in pieces no larger than 3' x 3') to the Rock Cut Road Drop-Off Site. Commercial entities cannot recycle cardboard at the Rock Cut Road Drop-Off Site. If a business has a large volume of cardboard to recycle, please contact the following, prior to delivery:
