Cardboard Recycling Pickup Services
We pick up and recycle cardboard for homes and businesses, keeping docks, garages, and storerooms clear.
Our crew handles a wide range of pickups, including:
- Residential move in and move out boxes
- Retail bale or loose box collections
- Office and warehouse pile downs
- Recurring scheduled pickups
- Bulk event or clearance boxes
- Photo based estimates
- Loading and recycling documentation
We flatten or bale as needed, stage pallets neatly, and keep docks and garages open for use.
Why Hire a Professional Junk Removal Crew?
Cardboard builds up quickly after moves or deliveries. Large loads are hard to bundle and haul without the right equipment.
Our licensed and insured team provides:
- Fast collection of flattened or loose boxes
- Palletizing or baling for efficient transport
- Clear docks and garage access during loading
- Reliable scheduling for recurring pickups
- Delivery to recycling facilities with proof on request
We clear stacks, keep access points open, and provide simple scheduling so storage areas and docks stay functional and uncluttered.
What Affects the Cost of Cardboard Recycling?
Several factors impact the cost of your project. We offer fast, accurate quotes based on your layout and scope.
Your quote will depend on:
- Location and travel distance
- Volume by cubic yards or bale count
- Number of rooms or property size
- Accessibility (dock time, elevator, loading zone)
- Materials handled (loose vs baled, contamination levels)
- Disposal and transfer station fees
Estimates typically require photos or site visit, but we respond quickly and work around your schedule.
