More than 80% of the cardboard we use in the UK is recycled. In fact, it’s the most widely recycled type of packaging! The material can be recycled many times and you can help by putting used cardboard in your recycling bin, or taking it to your local recycling centre. While recycling is without doubt the best way to dispose of cardboard, for the minority that does end up in landfill, the good news is that it’s totally biodegradable.
