Paper trash in space is typically stored on the spacecraft or space station until it can be disposed of properly during a scheduled resupply mission. Some paper waste may be incinerated on board to reduce the volume of trash. In the case of larger items, such as packaging materials or documents, they may be packed into cargo spacecraft and eventually burn up upon re-entry into the Earth's atmosphere.
