The Ugly Box!
We ship our products in ugly boxes!
REDUCE. REUSE. RECYCLE.
So one day I noticed how many empty boxes were stacking up around my home, my friends homes, at work. I get it... everyone shops online now, but I was concerned about the growing waste we were creating. So I went down a rabbit hole of research.
"Only about 68 percent of all paper and cardboard recycling actually winds up being recycled every year."
This led me to reducing our carbon footprint by using repurposed and recycled shipping materials as much as possible.
I encourage you to do the same!
So instead of throwing your box away consider using it in another way.
Here are some other uses for used cardboard boxes
- Compost them. Cardboard can easily be added to a compost pile and used for mulch and gardening.
- Protect your floors when painting.
- Make drawer dividers.
- Use them for car or garage storage.
- Make a doll playhouse.
- Keep them for shipping.
