Running a printer cartridge recycling and collection scheme can be a time-consuming business.

It can be a bit messy too. When recycling and packing up the old printer cartridges sometimes the ‘not-quite-empty’ inkjet and toner cartridges can leak. It’s OK when it’s a small number of cartridges, every now and then, but if you are running a big collection scheme for your school or charity then it can be quite a pain.

We think we’ve come up with the answer to these problems and instead of encouraging you to run a collection scheme yourself we suggest you simply encourage your supporters to send their cartridges direct to us.

Simply by promoting our inkjet and toner cartridge recycling scheme on your charity and school website, and in your email newsletters, fund-raisers can generate the same amount of funds but without any of the hassle.

We arrange free courier pick-up from all your supporters, be they from parents, friends or local companies.

All you need to do is add a link on your website and emails to our website here http://www.gtrecycling.com/recycle .

Your school or charity will get paid the full amount that your supporter donates. All they need to do is fill in the form on our website, with your organisation’s name and we take care of the rest. You can also easily add this link to your Facebook Fan Pages/Linked-in profiles, even your blog, Twitter pages and more.

We’re a small but growing toner and inkjet cartridge recycling company in Peterborough and are having a big year since launching our online recycling cash calculator, on our website here; http://www.gtrecycling.com/recycle .

Our recyclers are saying nice things about the website since we display an ‘instant’ price we pay for their empty cartridges. And my colleagues here on the GreenTech Recycling Helpdesk are doing a good job organising free pick-up of their cartridges and then sending payments to all our recyclers and charities/schools within 14 days.  (more…)
