I have neighbors giving me cartons too - I just give the kind I don't use to my other neighbor who sells eggs to strangers (he doesn't care about any kind of egg carton rules). I only use the kind that are easy to clean and easy to take all labels off - or styrofoam for smaller eggs just to give a neighbor or for ourselves or for saving/sorting hatching eggs.My next door neighbor gave me some empty egg carton's from Fry's today. I don't use those, since I bought all of those blank egg carton's for my use from Stromberg's and Amazon. So I just stack those Fry's one's up separate to give to someone that might need some. I'm getting empty Fry's egg carton's coming out of my ear's over here.
