What to do with empty cartons from your shop

If you run a supermarket, provision store, pharmacy or distribution business, you know the problem. Every delivery leaves a pile of empty cartons, and they take up space fast.

Most shops burn them, dump them or pay someone to cart them away. There is a better option: sell them.

The usual options, and why they cost you

Burning cartons fills your street with smoke and can get you in trouble with your neighbours or the local authority. Dumping them blocks drains. Paying a cart pusher costs money every week. All three treat your cartons as rubbish, when they are actually a product someone wants to buy.

Sell them instead

Reearnify buys used cartons from shops and businesses across Ibadan. We come to your premises, weigh the cartons on our scale in front of you, and pay per kilo by transfer or cash on the same visit.

For businesses with a lot of cartons

If you fill a store room with cartons every week or two, let us know. Message us with your location and roughly how much you produce, and we will work out a pickup rhythm that suits you.

Common questions

Can a supermarket sell its empty cartons?

Yes. Supermarkets and provision stores are some of our best sellers because they produce a lot of carton every week.

Do you charge to take the cartons away?

No. We pay you for them, and the pickup itself is free.
