Boxes in recyclers - Kovirii - 04-10-2014

Simply, would there be a problem with having recyclers unload items from their containers, such as a box full of coils of wire? Alternatively, what about some way of easily wrangling multiple coils and containers? (and like items in general, or bulk anything in containers)

While we're on the topic, why not be able to recycle the box itself?


Re: Boxes in recyclers - Kovirii - 04-17-2014

What raw resource would the box be recycled into?

They have to be made out of something. It will remain a sace mystery what until we can break them down into it.

how about making a function in recyclers where if it is not a normal material it can break down, there could be a grind option, turns all non recycle-able materials into scrap which you then recycle.

What base material does the scrap become? I mean boxes would be paper or maybe fibrilith, right?

scrap becomes a random small mix of the base three materials

Paper. That's all cardboard is, really, and it's not a stretch to assume the boxes are made of cardboard as most tend to be.
