Recycle toner cartridges to earn cash and save the environment.
Individual households, businesses, and all types of organizations can recycle toner cartridges and receive cash for each cartridge recycled. Toner cartridges are non-biodegradable, so recycling them helps the environment as well as generates some cash. Recycling toner cartridges has become a popular fund-raiser for churches, schools, sports and civic organizations, and many charities. There are literally hundreds of organizations that will recycle toner cartridges for cash.
Instructions
1. Your business or organization can easily start a recycling program for toner cartridges. Once you decide to start such a program, send out a memo to all departments and/or units within your organization, informing everyone about the recycling program.
2. Decide on a recycling service to use, some of which are charities themselves. The amount you are paid will depend on the types of cartridges you are recycling. If you choose, these recycling services will also donate the money for the cartridges to charity on behalf of your business.
3. Place recycling bins or containers in every department/unit where printers, copiers, and FAX machines are in use. As toner cartridges are used up and replaced with new ones, the old cartridges should be placed in the recycling containers.
4. Periodically empty the recycling containers and prepare a list of the toner cartridges you are recycling. Provide the type and model number of each cartridge being recycled. Keep one copy of the list for your records, and then include the list with your shipment or fax it to the recycling service.
Take your toner cartridges to a centralized location for processing. Most recycling services will provide you with packing materials and shipping labels with free postage, or they will provide pick-up services. The recycling service will verify your list when your shipment arrives and make any necessary adjustments before sending out payment.
5. Decide how you want to receive your payment. If you purchase toner cartridges from the same organization that provides the recycling service, you can request that a credit be made to your account. If you want cash, request that a check for the appropriate amount be sent to you. And if you want the money donated to charity, request that a receipt for the amount donated be provided by the recycling service and the charity.
