Recycling a used cardboard corrugated shipping box

Recycle a shipping box by resizing it.
Make sure the corrugated box is dry with no oil or chemical residue on the inside or on the outside.

.: Peel off all tape and labels.
If the tape and the labels are glued and hard to remove then leave them be.

.: Separate the corner tab from the boxes wall carefully.

.: If it's glued, then use a utility knife blade to carefully cut through the bond.

.: You should be able to flip the box inside out and refold the flaps and sides to shape it like a box again.

.: Use a tape gun to tape the inner tabs to the inner walls

.: Make sure all edges and flaps meet nice and neat.

.: Tape the inner bottom flap corner to outer bottom flap corner.

.: Tape the other inner flaps corners to the other corners

.: Tape both of the remaining inner flap corners and press hard on the tape to make sure it's nicely stuck together

The result is a used corrugated cardboard  shipping box looking clean and new, ready to be used as a used cheap cardboard corrugated shipping box or even as a used storage box.
