What company is best to use for ink cartridge recycling now that cash for critters doesn't do it anymore?

Question

I work for the local SPCA (animal shelter) and I am researching/looking for a new place to send ink cartridges to for our recycling fundrasing program. We used to use Cash for Critters, but now they only accept cell phones! Please help! Any suggestions of other companies would be great! Thanks so much!

Answer 1

I wasn't aware that they stopped? PetSmart's website does list as still recycling cartridges...so i'm not really sure...heres a link http://www.petsmartcharities.org/donate/...

Other than that I know a lot of times local schools have ongoing fundraising programs or I would also recommend InkStop...a new chain of office supply store which donates the proceeds to the Boomer Esiason Cystic Fibrosis Foundation...they are an excellent charity with whom I have done some volunteer work with!  Hope that may have helped a bit.

Also being an animal lover I'm not sure if you have seen this site.... http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com/click... portion of every sale goes to help animals in need...I have it set to my home page so everytime i log on theres a big purple button to click which helps donate bowls of food.  I know thats a bit random but I'm trying to spread the site and get more people to help out, especially since its as easy as clicking a button!

Answer 3

PetSmart Charities supplies free mailers.

Answer 4

Go to www.Empties4Cash.com.  You can sign up your non-profit and they provide mailers and give you around $4.00 for each cartridge sent in.

Very good fundraising opportunity.

Answer 5

As far as getting paid to return the cartridges I am unaware of any but HP cartridges can be refilled at Office Max without needing to return them.  They can be returned to with the prepaid mailer.
