Ink Cartridge and Laser Cartridge Recycling

cartridge

cartridgeEveryday, we use a printer somewhere, whether its at home, work, school, church or just about anywhere else.  Most of the time, we never think about what to do with the ink or toner cartridges that we have used up.  Most likely, you throw them in your trash, while its not illegal (in most places), it does not make sense.  The cartridges are made of various products including metal and plastic which either do not break down or take a very long time to be broken down.  As part of community based programs, we offer cartridge recycling.

Contact us for details on recycling your cartridges today.  Check out the information below for more details on getting started in saving and recycling your cartridges.  You can help us to keep these items out of the garbage and give them a second chance at life.  Our recycling program is real easy, depending on what you are using your cartridges for, just read our list of suggestions below, also our program is limited to and around the Kaufman Texas region.  If you have a question, please contact us.

Personal/Home Use:

  1. You do not have to retain the original packages.  We can recycle these items regardless.  If you have a laser toner cartridge, we do prefer to have the original boxes they come in if possible.  Make it easier for packing.
  2. If possible, place cartridges in a standard zip lock baggy.
  3. Continue to save your cartridges, when you have 5 or 10 to recycle, contact us for delivery or pickup.
