Cardboard boxes have been used for many years, both for shipping products and storing them. Cardboard boxes are adaptable, lightweight, protect their contents and are also fully recyclable. Even today, no material has emerged to rival them. Over the past year, the pandemic has multiplied online shopping worldwide, and with this increase, cardboard boxes have become omnipresent in many homes.
In view of the presence of so many cardboard boxes in our homes, it is most common for those that are in a worse state of preservation or have small sizes to be deposited in the blue paper/carton recycling container. However, newer ones or those of a size that we find suitable for reuse can be stored folded anywhere for when we need them.

Too much sunlight makes our laptop screens difficult to see. This is when we can fetch one of the cardboard boxes we have kept. It needs to be larger than the open laptop. Put the laptop inside it, like a tent, and we have a dark box that lets us see the screen clearly. If we will use it often, we can decorate it or ask our son or daughter to draw something on it. To make it an even better dark box, we can also paint the inside black.
And with our tent for the laptop We no longer have an excuse not to work outdoors.
