At Hurn Recycling, we offer cardboard and wastepaper recycling collection for businesses and premises across Dorset.
Cardboard and paper recycling is the process of collecting used paper products and turning them into new paper or cardboard instead of sending them to landfill.
Common recyclable items include newspapers, office paper, paper bags, cereal boxes, and flattened corrugated cardboard.
We know that cardboard is one of the largest single constituents of general (or municipal) waste worldwide. In fact, within the material we collect specifically for cardboard and paper recycling, 80-90% is made up of cardboard.
At Hurn Recycling, we provide cardboard and paper recycling for businesses of all sizes, allowing you to effectively and sustainably manage your waste. We keep you on track with a tailored paper and cardboard waste collection and recycling strategy to suit your business needs.
We can also provide cardboard and paper recycling bins or arrange baled and loose cardboard collections if your business does not have storage space for bins.


Our company provides tailored cardboard and paper recycling services designed to meet the unique needs of businesses, ensuring safe, reliable, and legal disposal with minimal disruption. By choosing Hurn Recycling, we will provide you with:
Every collection follows current local and national waste regulations, so you're always covered.
Collection schedules built around how your business operates, not the other way round.
We collect the dry cardboard and paper from your site. Keeping materials free from food, liquid, and general waste helps maintain quality and ensures they can be efficiently recycled into new products.

Once collected, the cardboard and paper are taken to a recycling facility, where they are sorted by type and grade. Any non-recyclable items, such as plastic, food residue, or other contaminants, are removed.

After sorting, the material is baled and sent for reprocessing, where it is broken down into fibres and made into new paper or cardboard products. This helps reduce landfill and conserves valuable natural resources.

Paper waste can often contain sensitive data, which is why we can also provide you with a secure confidential recycling solution for paper waste.
Any sensitive documents containing personal or company information must be shredded in order to protect the data. The shredded paper will then get recycled according to the current UK guidelines.
