Cash in Carboard

   I can't believe that so many businesses send Carboard boxes to landfill, and then so many people pay good money for boxes when they are moving house. It pisses me off.

   If you had space there is sure to be money to be made in trading this off:

• Link up with local businesses who will be throwing out usable cardboard boxes (an example would be a small scale warehousing operation or an independent supermarket). Try to get these boxes for nothing (as you are saving their waste management costs; or next to nothing).
• Start sorting the boxes out according to size.
• Advertise cheap boxes for sale.
• Look for alternative uses and income streams for these boxes.

It looks like what these guy are doing:
