Do you want to help save the
environment profitably? I’m pretty sure most of you will say yes. Whenever
money is involved, many could not resist the temptation admit it or not. But
just a reminder, don’t let yourself be tempted by these incentives or amount
that you can get in exchange of returning used cartridges. You should not make
it as your motivation why you should consider joining a recycling program for
printer supplies.
If you haven’t practice cartridge
recycling, then check out this quick guide on how to recycle your printer’s
empty consumables. Remember your goal here is to reduce waste and help protect
the environment. The bonus here is that you can get considerably cheap toner cartridges and ink cartridges which are produced from used components. Well
fine, you can also have some small rewards.
What are the options to recycle cartridges?
The Kindest
Consider as the kindest option of
all the choices is by donating it to a charity organization. Let’s say you
don’t need money and you just want to get rid of those cartridges through a
good cause. If you don’t know any organization near your community, then make a
research. Visit our friendly Google, type “printer cartridges for charity”, and
there you have all the resources.
The Most Convenient
It is by sending them back to the
retailer, shop, or store where you get those supplies. Ask your local retailer
if they do accept empty cartridges so you can simply drop them off whenever you
need to get a replacement. Also, determine what they do with those returned ink
and toner cartridges. So you’ll know if they send it to their original
manufacturers, or they just refill it. If their answer is the latter, I suggest
you return it directly to its manufacturer by enrolling to their program. If they
don’t accept, then perhaps they know where to recommend you.
The Profitable
Though it sounds too good to be
true, users can return used print cartridges in exchange for cash. There are a
lot of “We Buy” sites online or local stores that will gladly accept those
empty cartridges of yours, and in return you get cash rewards. They can pay you
$1 - $4 more or less for each empty toner or ink you surrender. But, there’s a
certain limit to how many supplies a customer can sell, it may vary from 5-10
as maximum.
Right now, almost all the
manufacturers in the print industry have their own cartridge recycling program
both for inks and toners. Office supply companies as well are supporting these
through placing drop-off recycling bins on their participating branches. Check
the website of your printer brand and see if they could help you get rid of
those empty consumables through reusing.
