Recycling makes sense so I can hold all those smaller items that I need to be stored away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Shoe boxes can be recycled in many ways. My personal preference is to label and use them for storage. When I don&#8217;t need them, I recycle them in my city recycling bin.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What can you do with your shoebox?

Some are better for storage because they remain level when other boxes are placed on top. Some boxes are flimsy and might not work for your needs, and might need to be put in the recycle bin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a look at your <a style=\"outline: none;\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/helpshoe.com\/how-do-i-organize-my-shoes\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-lasso-id=\"44\">organizational<\/a> (article) or craft needs around the house and see if it will satisfy anything you&#8217;ve been wanting to do?
