Baled OCC stands for Old Corrugated Containers that have been compressed into dense, stackable bales for recycling or resale. It usually includes clean used cardboard from boxes, shipping cartons, and distribution packaging. Baling reduces storage space, improves handling efficiency, and makes cardboard easier to transport to buyers, processors, or mills.
