"Likewise, my wife received an order from Walmart.com that was packaged with nearly 150 of those inflatable plastic air bags. I took the time to deflate every one, roll them all together, and drop them in the grocery bag recycling box at the grocery store. I couldn't believe the overwhelming amount of packaging. To The Busy Creator's comment about time being more valuable in this chain than cardboard/packaging materials, I'm sure that Amazon/Staples/etc. have this figured out regarding end-stage delivery, too. Because eventually there has to be a tipping point where delivery trucks need to be efficiently loaded as well, and apparently the math works to ship a tiny battery in a 1,008 cubic inch box and there was enough room on the shelves in the van that brought you your goods."
