What sort of packing materials and containers are classified as reusable transport packaging?
Containers, totes, and pallets that can be cleaned, repaired (as needed) and reused are consider reusables. Reusables are often made of durable plastic, metal, or wood, and often incorporate recycled content. Using reusables conserves the energy that would be required in the manufacturing of single use boxes, as well as the energy that would be needed to break down and recycle those boxes. Shipping with reusables utilizes the same containers time after time, saving both energy and money.
