One material, fewer mysteries. Start with what you have, where it sits, and how a crew can reach it.

Cardboard collection built around the real pile

A garage after a move is not the same job as a warehouse dock. The cardboard may be loose, flattened, bundled, or baled. Access can mean a short driveway, a second-floor carry, a service alley, or a scheduled dock appointment.

TidyWay’s service pages help you sort the material, describe the access, and understand what can change the scope before pickup day.

A clean route from boxes to pickup

The useful details fit on one packing slip: material, volume, condition, access, and timing.

  1. 01

    Sort the stream

    Keep corrugated cardboard separate from food, liquids, foam, film plastic, and trash.

  2. 02

    Describe the pile

    Share photographs, rough dimensions, box counts, or bale counts without pretending they are exact weights.

  3. 03

    Map the access

    Note gates, stairs, elevators, alleys, loading docks, parking limits, and the carry distance.

  4. 04

    Confirm the plan

    Scope, timing, material acceptance, and price should be agreed before work begins.

Clean flattened cardboard separated from packing plastic in a garage

Clean and dry is the useful starting point.

CalRecycle guidance says cardboard in traditional recycling should be dry and free of debris. Local acceptance still varies, especially for coated or food-soiled packaging.
