Green waste is no problem, everything is composted (we are on a small
farm). Before Rother changed their sub-contractor they would take extra
bags of recycling and flattened card board left next to the bin, but the
new lot have refused and just left it all with a snotty note

I'd like to incinerate cardboard but the clinging smell of smouldering
cardboard is not nice for our guests in the holiday cottages .

Hence looking for a squisher !

You can mulch up cardboard with other green waste and simply
compost it along with whatever vegetarian animal poo you
have access to.


You can also shred it & use as cat litter. Little domestic shredders typically want it cutting into strips narrower than A4, look for the slowest feed rate to get the greatest torque.
