?????Recycling Cardboard is there any money making in that?

Question

How is everyone doing, i started recycling cardboard and i filled up my trunk, the backseat, and on top of my car i had a bunch like 3 feet high and all i got was 20 dollars and it took me like an hour to find and look , it ill only be good if i have a truck, i know guys that have a truck and take home 120 bucks and it takes them like 4 hours to find and load. Do you guys think its a good idea to make it part time, let me know what you guys think? Thanks and Cheers

Answer 1

depends, you can get a pickup truck cheap and talk to some small businesses. They unlike big stores, which has so much cardboard that they sell it or have it taken for free, have to put it with regular trash and pay to dispose of it. Most dont take the time to bundle it up and sell it themselves. You can talk to some small businesses that have a decent amount of cardboard. My dad owns a paint store and w/ our cardboard could probably fill the back of 2 pickup trucks per week. If you offer to take it off their hands instead of them paying the trash man to take it, you can save them some money and also have a steady stream of customers that have large amounts vs going to homes for small amounts which takes longer and costs more to you via gas and time. You could probably make a good amount, goodluck!

Answer 2

AND HOW MUCH GAS DID YOU BURN ON THIS " GREEN ADVENTURE " ? DID YOU POLLUTE MORE THAN THE CARDBOARD IS WORTH ?

Answer 3

a trailer could be the option instead of a truck look for other things like copper and aluminium to take to the recyclers for cash
