How to make money collecting cartons

Some shops produce more carton than they have time to deal with. That gap is an opportunity. If you have a little space and some time, collecting cartons from nearby shops and selling them can bring in steady extra money.

Where to find carton

Supermarkets, provision stores, electronics shops, pharmacies and distributors all receive goods in cartons. Many are happy for someone to take the empty boxes off their hands, especially if you are reliable and come at the same time each week.

Storing it

You need a dry, covered space. Flatten every box, stack them off the ground, and keep them away from rain. Wet carton is worth nothing, so storage is the part you cannot skip.

Selling it

Once you have a good load, at least 50 kg, message Reearnify on WhatsApp at 0708 734 1449. We come to you, weigh in front of you and pay per kilo on the spot. The more you gather, the more you earn.

Common questions

Do I need a licence to collect cartons?

Collecting cartons from shops with their permission is a normal informal trade. Always ask the shop owner first, and only take what they give you.

Can I sell to Reearnify as a collector?

Yes. We buy from anyone with a proper load of dry carton in our area.
