Companies and commercial enterprises of all sizes tend to get through a large number of printer cartridges and mobile phones in the course of their business, and both the initial purchasing outlay and the subsequent waste disposal costs of this can quickly escalate.
Collecting and recycling your company's used cartridges can save you money on waste disposal and the costs of replacement cartridges, as well as helping your company fulfil its Duty of Care - EmptyCartridge Recycling Ltd is a registered waste carrier.
Businesses' extensive usage of printer cartridges makes recycling by individual companies a vital element in environmental protection. During the year 2000, over 48 million ink jet and over 7 million laser toner cartridges were consumed in the United Kingdom - many of these will have been used by businesses like yours.
Empty printer cartridges and mobile phones in most cases have a value that we will pay either directly to you, or make a donation of the value across a broad range of UK charities or to the charity of your choice. We also pay high prices for unused/surplus items such as inkjet, laserjet cartridges, drum units, fuser units and transfer belts.

Payment for cartridges:
Upon receipt of your empty cartridges / mobile phones, our warehouse staff will process the goods (each cartridge is individually inspected to determine whether or not the cartridge will print once recycled) and a report will be raised for the total amount of acceptable empty cartridges/phones you have returned. You will receive a a purchase order for the collection requesting a VAT invoice. Payment will be made once you accrue a balance of £30. You will normally receive payment approx 21 to 30 days of us receiving your empty cartridges.
Please note that we do not just visually inspect inkjet cartridges, we are one of the only companies that uses a ST200 shop tester. This enables us to give you a true evaluation as to whether your cartridge is working or non-working. Most companies only visually inspect, if this is the case your cartridge may be seen to be faulty and classed as a reject when it is actually electrically sound.
