BORDENTOWN, N.J. - For those pizza nights at the house, one South Jersey town has a solution for what you can do with that empty pizza box.Bordentown has started a pizza box recycling program and it’s gaining a lot of attention as they team up with local farmers by filling a pizza collection bin, instead of landfills. “Project Pizza Box” is the first of its kind in the state.“Judging from how fast this fills up, a lot of people eat a lot of pizza.
We are the pizza belt of New Jersey. I just thought it would be good to have something better to do with pizza boxes then just throw them in the trash,” said Jeff Tober, who started the project.Tober says the bin fills up to the brim every ten days located near the Farmer’s Market.
