Cardboard Recycling
Cardboard recycling with MHM UK LTD turns your cardboard waste from a costly disposal problem into a valuable, sellable commodity. Our range of balers compacts loose cardboard into dense, uniform bales that recyclers will pay for—reducing volume by up to 90% and generating revenue from your waste stream.
Cardboard is one of the most recyclable materials in commercial and industrial waste, but loose cardboard is bulky and expensive to dispose of. Baling solves this by compressing cardboard into dense bales that are easy to store, transport, and sell—cutting disposal costs and creating a potential income stream.
From compact vertical balers for small businesses to fully automatic balers for high-volume 24/7 operations, every MHM cardboard recycling baler is manufactured in the UK with anti-wire snap technology and full-bale ejection as standard.

Cardboard Recycling FAQs
Yes. Clean, well-baled cardboard is a valuable recyclable commodity that recyclers will pay for. Combined with the savings from reduced waste collections and disposal costs, many businesses see a return on investment within months of installing a baler.
For small to medium volumes, a vertical baler is ideal. For medium to large volumes, a semi-automatic baler offers higher throughput. For continuous high-volume cardboard waste, a fully automatic baler enables 24/7 operation. Contact us for a tailored recommendation based on your daily volume.
For maximum recycling value, cardboard should be clean and dry, free from food contamination, plastic tape, and other materials. Contaminated cardboard may still be baled but will fetch a lower price from recyclers. We can advise on best practices for preparing your cardboard.
