is paperboard, e.g. cereal boxes, recyclable?

Answer 1

In most places, paperboard is recycled along with paper. Check with your local recycling center and see what they accept. Every place is different.

Answer 2

Yes, paperboard, sometimes also called gray board or box board, is recyclable. However, not all areas accept it for recycling. I think some of it depends on if there is a market for it. Where we live we can recycle all types of cardboard. We have separate bins for corrugated cardboard and gray board

Answer 3

I don't see why not. My Rice krispies box was made out of recycled material.. I think cardboard or paperboard that isn't plastic coated is recyclable.

Answer 4

Many paper products are potentially recyclable if you have a recycling facility that will take it. At most places you have to separate white paper, colored paper, corrugated cardboard and the rest goes together. Locally, our facility calls this all other paper products, Mish Mosh. Items that typically are not recyclable include food contaminated paper, waxy coated milk cartons, wax paper, laminated paper, fast food wrappers, pet food bags, and a few others.

Answer 5

because of the oil from the food & base that gets in the cardboard & ruins it for recycling purposes also food scraps in all containers not just pizza boxes ruins the recycling process. Always rinse out and clean everything before putting in recycle bin

Answer 6
