You are right, I made a solar oven out of a large pizza box. I bring it out and position it on top of my car and make croutons, tortilla chips and sweet potato chips on hot days. When is it ever a bad idea not to have to use fossil fuels or electricity for cooking?

Use them to store ongoing craft projects (if they are flat, that is).

To keep them oil free: take the pizza out of them as soon as you get it !

If you have food all over your pizza box you can buy new cheap pizza boxes from Davpack for gift boxes for clothing. If it’s got food on then your better off to compost it like Helen said.

If you can manage to keep the grease off the box itself, they are great for storing quilts in progress.

Also, When my boys were small we had a pizza-themed birthday party and we used a pizza box to make a pinata.

If food/oil-free, then repurpose as clothing gift box (shirt, pants…).

They already absorbed some oil, why not make them absorb more? Use them to soak up small oil leaks.
