Don’t Forget to Reuse and Recycle!
Cardboard boxes are a part of ensuring your monthly gifts arrive safe and sound. Instead of throwing away the boxes your eco subscription boxes are shipped in, you can reduce your environmental impact by re-purposing the cardboard box. There are a lot of ways you can re-use your cardboard boxes – from making a DIY planter to using the cardboard to help prevent weeds in your garden.
If you have more boxes than you can use, you can always drop your unused cardboard boxes at your nearest recycling center.
