Financial Benefits
If your site is currently putting cardboard waste into a bin or a skip, as it’s loose material, you’ll be paying a higher than necessary cost for transport. If the cardboard is compacted using a baling machine then it becomes a ‘’win win’’ scenario as you’ll reduce your transport costs and may receive a revenue for materials you’re currently paying to have taken away.
