Trash question: what do you do with staple-reinforced cardboard boxes?

I bought a microwave and it came in a cardboard box with large staples in the corners to hold its shape. I feel like I’m going to lose my fingernails just at the thought of prying them open. Nor does a regular stapler have the right leverage to get them out.

Am I missing something? Could it be that it’s alright to put this out without it being flattened and tied up? That seems unlikely, but I’m unsure what to do with this box which is hard to ignore in this wee 1K.

Thank you in advance!
