I put out a pile of flattened boxes last week that was about 3 feet high and they took it.

They also once took a treadmill box that was literally the size of a casket so I think you'll be fine.

They'll take a ton of cardboard. Just break and cut it down to manageable chunks. When I have a lot of cardboard, I'll stack it and wrap with duct tape string so they can just grab the bundle.

edit: use string instead

Duct tape isn't recyclable so there's a chance they won't take it. Some of the sanitation workers don't care and will pick it up anyway, but others will play by the rules.

They take a lot, I break down boxes and place them in the largest box. They have always taken them.

Hello neighbor. You probably won't have any trouble, but after my move, I gotbrid of most of my boxes by giving them away on Craigslist. The rest I just drove over to Construction Junction.

If you have Uhaul boxes, take them back to Uhaul. They'll take them back. Otherwise, pick a few boxes a little bigger than a case of beer or a medium sized Amazon box, set them aside, and break everything else down, and stick them in the ones you set aside.
