Frozen Food Boxes Are Not Recyclable

1-22-2017

Frozen food boxes are made of cardboard, so a lot of people think they are recyclable. What a lot of folks don’t know is that the cardboard you find in the freezer aisle is coated with plastic in order to preserve its contents. This protects the food from getting wet or freezer burned, but it also makes the boxes impossible to recycle. Make sure they end up in the trash — not in your recycling.
