I've scrapped cardboard one time, someone dumped a bunch behind my lawn care shop so instead of tossing it into the dumpster I took it to the paper place to see how it works. Same as any scrap yard just back up and dump into a massive pile. That was about a year ago,,,cardboard was at $50ton and mixed paper at $45 ton. I know some grades of office paper can go for over 1k$ a ton.
$50 a ton is extremely low but when I would go out dumpster diving I'd see so much of it. Only thing I can see getting in the way of getting businesses to hold me their cardboard and paper is having some where to keep it. I'd have to make a big wood container for each site to put it so wind doesn't blow it away making a mess etc,,
