A conveyor device (2) is provided on which the bulk material containing both card board and paper is transported to a sorting station (5). At this point, the cardboard components are extracted mechanically. For this, the paper and cardboard components are transported while lying flat, and are only partially supported, for which the conveyor device (2) includes lowered free spaces (7) between the support areas. A receiver device (9) possessing freestanding barbs (11) moves synchronously with the conveyor device (2). These barbs (11) are arranged pointing toward the non-supported sections of the paper and cardboard components, and can extend into the free spaces (7) formed on the conveyor device (2). For this, the cardboard components are transfixed by, and held to the barbs (11) of the receiver device (9), but the paper components are not. The cardboard components are stripped off the receiver device (9) at a point that is spatially separate from the supply end of the conveyor device, at which the paper components, which were not transfixed by the barbs of the receiver device (9), exit.
