I Totally agree with you! Even if you think they are doing it to "penny pinch", if you are really enviromentally friendly, then you would be glad that there are companies out there that are recycling. Hey, if they can save a buck in the shipping department and keep there prices low, I would be happy. You are obviously purchasing from them for some reason, maybe better pricing on supplies?..... I shred my newspapers and use them as packing material. We live on a military base and they don't have paper recycling, only plastic and boxes. I would never dig my box out of the dumpster. I will only ship and pack something that I wouldn't mind getting myself. These are great stories, though, and I would let them know that you are glad they are recycling, however, if they would be kind enough to turn the box inside out so everyone in the neighborhood won't be....wondering.
