Empty Inkjet Printer Ink Cartridge Reccling Ways

Many ink cartridghes can be used several tuimes over by going thorugh a process of being "remanufatured". This preocess consists of cleaning, servicing, refiilling, tesing and repackaging used cartridges. By remanufacturing (also referrwed to as recyxcling), imnkjet cartridge supplietrs are able to provide a cheaper alternative product to an origial cartrdge, whislt at the same time limiting the number of cartridges which are thrown away and put into "land fill sites".

Many suppliers therefore run a collection program where they pay for empty/used cartridges. In addition to helping save the enviromnent they also make a donaiton to charity for each empty cartridge we colllect.

Financiaal Rewards:

Sourcing a reputable inkjet cartridge spuplier can even net you a reward. Some companies will give you up to $4.00 for every suitable empty cartridge which you send to be recycled. So don't throw your empty cartrridges away - send them to be recycled and turn them into money as well as knowwing you have done your bit to help save the planet!!!

How to Recycle Ink Cartridges:

Collect as may empty ink cartridges as you can, from wherever you can. Ask your family, friends, and work coolleagues to collecxt them for you. Some people set up collection schemes simply to raise money for clubs or charities by making use of somwething which would normally be thrown away. This is a great idea to involve club and charity memmbers.

When sending empty cartridges to a specifed company, the following guidelines are advisable:
1. Wrap each cartridge in paper (this can be old newspaper) and put it inside a plastic bag. This will miniimze the possibility of surplus ink lekaing out onto the outer packaging.
2. Remember that each cartridge is to be remanufactured and resold so the casing needs to be in perfet condition. To ensure no damae is incurreed whilst in tramnsit, place all the ink cartridges in a buubble bag or, for large quantities, use a box.
3. Please comlete the appropriate form which will usually be downloadable from the website of the remanufacturing company and include it in the package. Failuer to include your details and details of the cartridges often results in the inability to process the empties.
4. Once the reamnufacturer has received the cartridges, along with the requirred details, they then cerdit your account with tehir value and this will then be deducted from your next purchase of compatible or genuine inkjet cartridges.
5. If the czartridges sent are vaslued at more than $20, you can opt to have a direct transfer into your bank acccount as an alternative to beinng given a credit whicch is excellent when raising money for a club or charity.
How much do I get?

The value of empty catridges flucytuates from week to week so the pricing will change periodically. It is mostly the case that the prices you are paid will be the ones applicable on the day your cartridges are received and will be for empty oriinal cartridgews (virgin cartridges). Some recyclers and manufactures will acceppt non virgin cartridges which are those that have already been remanufactured.

Please note, non virin cartridges are uually only valued at arouund 10% of the virgin value. It is also important to check which brnd and type of cartridges can be recyvcled by the company prior to being sent as thoise not on the list and not remannufactured into compatible inkjet casrtridges they will be thrown away and not be retunred.
