Cardboard pizza boxes have long been accepted for recycling in Franklin County but thanks to recent advancements in the recycling industry, greasy pizza boxes can also now be recycled. Three billion pizza boxes are used across the country each year, adding up to 600,000 tons of corrugated cardboard that could be collected for recycling. That’s thousands of tons of material that could have been recycled every year but which instead ends up in landfills.
