Recycling Cardboard With A Waste Baler

The best and most efficient way to recycle cardboard is by using a cardboard baler. If you regularly have a large volume of cardboard waste, it is probably already sorted or segregated. You probably already put it into a cardboard container marked for “cardboard only”. This is a start, but there is much more you can do to improve your “carbon footprint” and save yourself money in the long-term.

If you have a brand new baler, it is likely to have the most modern design and will last you for many years. The cost of having your baler should normally be less than you are paying for your bins. In other words, you should pay less weekly for having a baler, than you pay for renting your bins and having them emptied. Now you can use your baler as a cardboard bin.

Because of the compaction ratio, you can really store a lot more cardboard in your baler. You just open the baler door, insert the cardboard, close the door, press the start button and walk away. The best balers are fully automated and will complete the whole baling cycle for you.

When you have made a bale, which will take a lot longer than you probably imagine, the bales can be left outside in all weather. If the bale is tightly compacted then the weather won’t normally be a problem. This is also a lot safer than loose cardboard in your bins. Tight bales of cardboard have no oxygen inside and are considered less of a fire hazard.

A Good Supplier of Baler Machinery will normally introduce you to a local collector in your area. The bales will then be collected (usually free of charge). If you have a large number of Mill Size Cardboard Bales, it may be possible to arrange free collection and also for you to receive a very good revenue per ton. Normally, anything smaller than mill size bales, will just entitle you to free collections. In some areas of the country, you may have a local Recycling Plant nearby, where you can take your bales and possibly receive small revenues yourself. TIP: Always ask your baler supplier if they can genuinely arrange this for you.

Because you are having your cardboard greatly compacted, this means you will have it collected much less often. As an example, where you previously had two 1100 litre wheelie bins collected weekly, you may just have 3 to 4 small bales collected every month, free of charge. This means you are helping reduce the amount of gas-guzzling dustbin lorries on the road. This also helps to reduce your carbon footprint even further.
