Is there any money in cardboard? We throw away alot of cardboard boxes. I can not find anyone in the Charleston SC area that takes cardboard but I do see some companies have their cardboard baled up. If anyone is recycling cardboard please let me know. BYW When I was younger and worked for a trash company I paid for the down payment on a new house with the money I made taking paper and cardboard into the scrap yards. But that was 40 years ago. LOL
I checked yesterday by me they are paying 65.00 per ton. That comes to about .035 per lbs. But I'm down in florida, not much help for you up in SC.
I checked around and found i2 Recycle - Commercial Recycling Company Serving Hilton Head, Bluffton, Beaufort, and Ridgeland Areas.. I know there they're paying a little over a dollar at some recyclers here in Phoenix
I would check out Rock Tenn,Tey have a location in Florance I do not know if they purchase cardoard at that location but they are the big boys in the cardbord/paper in the USA
Looking for bulk buyer of cardboard by truckload. I'm in Arkansas and the ones here only pay $60 per ton. I'm looking to ship out of area to someone that pays atleast twice that much. Please provide any suggestions for locating buyers. I've tried Google and Georgia P website to no avail. Thanks (didn't know where to start new thread for this topic)
Here I get cash . Paper 1 to 3 cents a lb. Bales 60 to 90 each . Big bales . I have taken a 8 ft bed full loose and got 6 to 8 bucks. They don't buy plastic.
Other local buyers pay by check and maybe once a week. But pay more.
If you charge to haul it away, have a baler, and only have to haul it a mile to sell it, it is probably still not worth it. I get 1.5 cents a pound, it doesn't even cover the cost of getting it there.
Arkansasjunkman there is a place here in kcmo called batliner contact them and see if they can help you.
