Recycled Paper Shredding  📝

REUSE 🌏

here are some of the awesome suggestions we have heard as to how you can REUSE your Paper Shredding!

  • reuse it as padding for gifts or packages you may send! 🎁
  • using it as padding in your pets enclosures (how cute!) 🐾
  • turning it into recycled paper! 📝
  • mixing it into the soil of pot plants to absorb moisture! 🌱
  • use it as a fire starter when making fires! (safely and legally of course) 🏕

RECYCLE ♻️

keep in mind that some City Councils will NOT accept Paper Shredding in your recycling bin!

please look on your local councils website to see if they accept shredded paper in their recycling bins, and what requirements you need to undertake to put it in there! 👍🏼

ALTERNATIVELY, here are some other ways you can recycle Paper Shredding!

  • chuck it in your compost bin! (if you have one!) 🌱
  • dig a small hole and bury it in your garden! (it will naturally biodegrade over about 2 weeks!) 🧑🏼‍🌾
  • mix it in with a bag of garden soil and use it when gardening! 🌹

bubble wrap is considered a Soft Plastic, meaning that is CANNOT be put into the Recycling Bin!

an option we also propose before putting it into landfill is to research "Soft Plastic Bins" near you!

in Australia, most Woolworths and Coles supermarkets have free to use Soft Plastic Recycling bins!

our BOXES are made of 100% recycled cardboard! this means that once you have taken all of your beautiful stones out of the box, you can dispose of it straight into your Recycling Bin! ♻️

our LABELS are also biodegradable! they are also Compost Safe, meaning that if you have a compost bin, you can put them in there also to create a nutrient rich soil perfect for gardens! 🌱

and finally, our TAPE is 100% biodegradable also, so pretty much no matter what you do with our boxes and the tape and labels on them, they are 100% sustainable and recyclable! ♻️
