Save Time – No need for your team to spend time flattening boxes! Simply place the cardboard waste straight into the baler and let it do the flat packing for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

2. What types of cardboard can be placed in a Baler?
Clean and dry cardboard boxes can be placed in a baler whole which is unlike traditional recycling bins or skips. All types of cardboard can be baled including corrugated cardboard, single and double walled boxes. The important thing to ensure that it is dry and not contaminated.
