OCC is unwaxed and has three layers. It is flat on the outside and wavy in the inside. Before placing it curbside you must flatten it and cut it into pieces that are no bigger than 2' x 3'. Place them on the side of your bin or underneath your bin. DO NOT include pizza boxes.
Food contamination interferes with recycling.
You can take cardboard to the Convenience Center on N. Dixon street. The 2' x 3' size requirement is waived, but make sure you flatten the boxes and remove any packaging paper and peanuts. If you have more than 20 boxes you can arrange a special curbside Friday pickup by calling the department of Public Works and Utilities ahead of time. Chipboard is a flat cardboard. When it is torn the frayed edges are usually brown are gray.
