We’re Reuseabox!

And we’re here to help companies reduce their impact on the environment.
Partnering with manufacturers, we divert their used cardboard boxes away from the recycling process, and re-distribute them to other companies looking to pack their products. By keeping cardboard in use for longer, we’re helping to reduce waste, protect the environment and contribute to a more circular economy.

We’re a not for dividend company. Ethical in our approach and on a mission to disrupt the packaging industry. We’ve come a long way since Jack started with a stack of used cardboard boxes in his parents’ garage back in 2013.

All Great Ideas Start With A Problem

In 2013 Jack dropped out of University and began looking for things to buy and sell in the hope of generating an income. He started selling products online but he soon encountered a problem. Finding packaging to send out small quantities of products was hard to source and expensive. It was also terrible for the environment. Jack didn’t want to package his products in expensive, bespoke cartons or non-recyclable plastic bags.


He wanted an alternative.

2013 - 2015

As a temporary measure Jack started reusing packaging he already had, mostly second hand cardboard boxes that products had been delivered in. He made a quick flyer to explain to his customers that their products were ‘packed in second hand boxes to save trees’.


To his surprise, his customers didn’t mind at all. Jack realised that the humble second hand cardboard box was low cost and versatile. He started sourcing more boxes from local businesses and supermarkets, anywhere they were throwing them out.


He even started selling them online as low cost, eco-friendly house moving packs.

Keep Things Simple

Jack transforms his parents’ shed into his warehouse. His bedroom becomes the head office.


He collects and delivers boxes by day..
Re-packs them by night.
And advertises them in the early hours.


Desperate for online coverage Jack launches a website and begins frantically buying as many used and unwanted cardboard boxes as he can find. The company is born as ‘Direct Cardboard Boxes’.

Hold Onto Your Seats!

Through cold calling Jack gets in contact with the buyers at a number of multinationals.


After months of chasing, one multinational orders a trailer load of used cardboard boxes.


Over the next few weeks they order a further 10 trailers of used boxes for a project. Jack scrambles the fork lifts, his family and friends muck in and the warehouse becomes a 24 hour operation. The deal gives Jack enough money to start to expand and re-invest.

The team moves to a new office and warehouse facility. They buy a new vehicle for deliveries. Office furniture gets remembered at the last minute and Jack stays up late the night before everyone’s first day putting together some flat pack office chairs. Unfortunately, putting together flat pack furniture is not Jack’s greatest skill and the chairs soon begin to fall apart.

Place An Order, Plant A Tree

We officially re-brand the company to Reuseabox. 2020 also brings a new partnership with One Tree Planted. We’re proud of the work we’re doing to keep cardboard in use for longer, but we also know that more can be done to protect the world we live in. That’s why we decided to partner with One Tree Planted. Each time a customer places an order with Reuseabox, we’ll plant a tree on their behalf. It’s that simple. Place an order, plant a tree. We’re excited to see just how many trees we can plant with your help.
