The bin fills up first
Regular recycling pickup helps, but the cart can disappear under cardboard fast.
Cardboard pickup for busy households
Stop breaking down boxes.
Box Gopher picks up empty cardboard boxes from your home on a simple recurring schedule. No flattening, no cutting, no more cardboard pile.
The household box problem
Delivery boxes should not own your garage.
Online orders are convenient. The cardboard aftermath is not. Box Gopher gives busy households a simple way to keep the pile from becoming a permanent fixture.
The pile gets annoying
Boxes end up by the door, in the garage, or next to the car until someone has time.
The errand never feels worth it
We make the extra cardboard disappear without adding another chore to your week.
How it works
Three steps. Then the boxes are gone.
Empty your boxes
Remove the contents and non-cardboard packing materials. No need to flatten them.
Put them out
Keep cardboard dry and leave it in your agreed pickup location by 8 AM.
We take it from there
Your cardboard gets collected on schedule. You are done.

A few practical details before pickup day.
Pickup is designed to be simple, but the small details matter. Here are the questions most people ask before they start.
Do I need to be home?
No. Put your empty, dry cardboard boxes in the agreed pickup spot by 8 AM and we will take it from there.
Do boxes need to be flattened?
No. Please empty the boxes and remove non-cardboard packing materials, but leave the box-breaking to us.
What if it rains?
Cardboard must stay dry. If heavy rain is expected, place boxes in a covered spot such as a porch, garage edge, or another protected location.
