Paper-Based Packaging

Renewable, curbside recyclable, and naturally biodegradable, our paper-based packaging offers a sustainable shopping experience with convenience in mind.


At Smebble, we understand that packaging waste poses significant environmental challenges, from overflowing landfills to ecosystem pollution. That’s why we’re committed to making a positive change. We take pride in shipping all our orders using renewable paper-based materials, with a strong emphasis on packaging options made from recycled content and post-consumer waste.

How to Dispose of Our Packaging

Convenient Curbside Recycling

We intentionally select our product packaging and shipping materials so that everything can be easily recycled through curbside municipal programs. By simply placing it all in your recycling bin, you help reduce the amount of waste ending up in landfills.

Other Environmental Benefits

Lower Carbon Footprint

Much of our packaging is made with recycled content and post-consumer waste. This results in lower carbon emissions when compared to packaging made from virgin materials. LEARN MORE

Resource Conservation

The use of recycled content and post-consumer waste in our packaging also helps conserve natural resources by reducing the demand for virgin materials.

Reduction of Plastic Pollution

By packaging and shipping products in paper-based materials, we help reduce the amount of plastic pollution that enters landfills, oceans, and natural habitats.

Natural Biodegradability

While its ideal method of disposal is through recycling, our paper-based packaging is naturally biodegradable, which means it can naturally break down over time.

Our Packaging Materials List

We believe in sharing information that allows our customers to make informed choices, which is why we’ve compiled a list of the paper-based items we use to package and ship our products. Our hope is that in addition to providing transparency about our packaging, this also serves as a resource for businesses and individuals seeking sustainable options for their own needs.

At present, we do not receive any form of financial benefit or reimbursement for providing these links. Should that change in future, we will be sure to disclose it here.
