Curbside or inside pickup

Cardboard we can pick up

Moving boxes

Flattened or assembled household moving boxes after a move, downsizing project or storage cleanout.

Delivery cartons

Shipping, furniture, appliance and wardrobe boxes that are empty, dry and free of packing materials.

Larger box piles

Garage, basement and small-business cardboard buildup that no longer fits your normal recycling service.

Clear the pile without making a dump run

You do not have to carry every stack to the curb. NewPath can collect cardboard from a garage, basement, apartment, office or other accessible area. Tell us about stairs, elevators, parking restrictions, loading docks or a long carry so the quote reflects the actual work.

Curbside or driveway pickup generally requires less labor. Place the cardboard in a dry, accessible location and send a clear photo showing the entire pile.

Cardboard removal pricing

A small, accessible curbside pile may fit NewPath’s $140 quick curbside starting rate. Larger piles, assembled boxes, inside removal and mixed loads are quoted from photos. Your final price is confirmed before pickup begins.

Breaking down the boxes can reduce the space they occupy and may make the pickup faster. Send photos even if the boxes are still assembled so we can review the actual volume.

Cardboard box removal FAQs

Do the boxes need to be flattened?

Flattening is strongly encouraged because it reduces volume and makes loading faster, but send photos if you need help with assembled boxes. Additional labor or volume may affect the quote.

Do the boxes need to be empty?

Yes. Remove household contents, foam, bubble wrap, plastic, packing peanuts, food and other non-cardboard materials before pickup.

Can you pick up cardboard from inside?

Yes, when access is workable. We can carry approved boxes from garages, rooms, apartments and basements. Mention stairs, elevators and parking when requesting the quote.

Will clean cardboard be recycled?

Clean, dry and separated cardboard has the best chance of meeting local recycling-facility requirements. Wet, greasy, moldy or mixed material may require different disposal. We review the condition of the load before pickup.

Where do you provide cardboard pickup?

Primary areas include Kingstowne, Alexandria, Springfield, Franconia and nearby Fairfax County communities.
