Donating items from around your home is a great way to not just declutter, but also give back and make a difference. It’s also the perfect way to reuse and recycle your Amazon boxes.
One of the ways Amazon makes it easy for you to do all of the above is through the Give Back Box program.

This program allows you to recycle packaging and old items in your house by donating them directly to charities who need them.
All you have to do is fill a box with items that you no longer want or need from your home, print out a free shipping label, and drop it off at your local UPS or USPS. Amazon will then pick up the box and donate the items to charity on your behalf, making it easy for you to give back.
Looking for some other ways to reuse and recycle your old Amazon boxes? We’ve got a few ideas for what you can do with them after you unpack your deliveries.
