Wax. Waxed cardboard is recyclable. And biodegradable. Only reason wax paper is generally not considered recyclable is because it’s mostly used for food, where it gets contaiminated.
I see, the garbage man charm is a global thing. People in the house where i live overfill the bin, every time. The garbage men just throw everything above the lid on the floor, every time.
Can’t fault them for this though. The ones that overfill the bin couldn’t care less and even step over their own trash, to throw new trash in the bin. Other neighbors end up putting their overfilled trash from last week in the bin.
Jesus! I could stuff a hog’s carcass in my overflowing can and they would just dump it and go. They mainly seem to care about car batteries and tires, everything else, fuck it, send it.
We have two competing garbage companies, and they do indeed compete. Score one for capitalism working as intended. OTOH, that’s a lot of wasted gas running by my house several times a week.
I’m with the “cool” company. The CEO shoots straight when he emails us. “Those other assholes are cheating! Here’s what went down at the city council meeting (with proof). Can you believe this shit?!”
I don’t think mine even care about car batteries and tires. If the truck arm can lift it, in it goes. I feel bad for saying it, but I’ve thrown random stuff in there, like rocks and broken down furniture because I was too lazy to make a dump run. Still haven’t seen them ever reject anything.
I am aware of waxed cardboard. I dismissed it because I thought that relying solely on it to store a liquid sounded a bit too ambitious. But it might work so yeah, I should have considered it.

Whenever I try to recycle waxed cardboard boxes the garbage men pull them out and toss them in my yard.

Is waxed cardboard recyclable?
Biodegradable
Even better to my mind. I so love shit that turns back into dirt, like literal shit.
