Pizza boxes or anything that is dirty, but would otherwise be recyclable

Pizza boxes can be a bit more tricky to recycle, but contrary to popular belief, they actually can be recycled.

I just learned this today actually...

Pizza boxes are usually good if there is that paper liner under the pie. Toss the paper though.

Usually there is cheese and other food on it. I've never seen one that can be recycled.

Piza boxes are a great way to contaminate other perfectly good cardboard. I wish municipal composting was more common.

Depends where you live, but in my area pizza boxes go with the cardboard.
