The Best Way I found to Crush a Pizza Box

Challenge- Fit a large 32 in Pizza Box into a small kitchen trash can.

• Common Solution - The Rectangle Method

• Better Solution - The Triangle Method.

 We have all tried  to fold the square pizza in half into rectangle and then once again into a smaller triangle.  The first problem with this method is that its hard to do. Boxes are meant to support  weight along the edges so are often harder to crease them there.  The second problem is that it often makes a mess and you then have to try and keep the box folded while it fights you to return to its original square shape.   This is all happening while you mash it into the trashcan.

 I introduce to you the Triangle Method,  just like with the square method, once the pizza box is empty fold it half, but instead of folding it in half like a rectangle fold it diagonally like a triangle.  The resistance you had with the rectangle was pretty significant but you should find this way much easier due to the fact that the pizza box often has seems or week spots at their corner.  Then once it is folded as triangle fold it again into a smaller triangle, if done correctly it should trap all the crumbs in the middle.  It should now fit easily into your trashcan with significantly much less frustration than what the rectangle method.
