Paper/cardboard recycling UK?

Question

At work, I've just been to put some paper and cardboard (about 80% paper) in the recycling bins in town, and the only bin for either of these said cardboard only on. I was in a bad mood so I just chucked it all in.

Can I get into trouble for this (the paper has the header of the business and address all over it)?

Hi

No I don't think you can get into trouble as cardboard is just thick paper.  When they collect CARDBOARD/PAPER here it all goes in the same wagon.  Always best to shred addresses and any personnal information though.
