Pizza Boxes

Pizza Boxes

A pizza box is a foldable, stackable and recyclable container constructed from corrugated cardboard, specifically designed to transport hot, ready-to-eat pizza.

 

Disposal Options

  • Pizza Boxes (Clean) - Recyling Bin

  • Pizza Boxes (Food Scraps, Oil) - FOGO Bin or General Waste Bin

 

Why

Oily pizza boxes cannot be recycled because grease and food residue contaminate the paper pulping process.  Only clean, non-greasy cardboard should go in the recycling bin.

 

Did You Know

Corrugated cardboard acts as an insulator, which is designed to keep the pizza warm for about 30 minutes.
