Recycle Old Ink Toners

My company has a lot of empty old laser ink toners, where can we bring them to get recycled? I know that Encrop Pacific recycles old computer equipments but not ink toners.

Thanks in advance.

My work uses an exchange program with who we buy ours from (Staples) I should be able to return them to any recycling depot and maybe the company you buy your cartridges from.

I think Staples and Office Depot have recycling programs...but they might have a limit on how many you can recycle each time.

Staples. Maybe call them up and ask if there is a limit. You don't want to bring them all there and then realize they only accept a certain amount.

Staples doesn't, don't know about Office Depot ...

Staples has a goal to recycle 2 million cartridges this year, so they'd welcome as many as you've got.

That's the US Staples. Staples Canada gives no such credit, although does occasionally have promotional offers.

Staples Canada does not give back money for your toners/ink nor is there a limit. The money back thing IS for Staples US.

However, if you're ever looking for a printer in the future, Staples Canada does offer promotional things from time to time (it's been a while so it should be coming up again soon) where you get $50 off a new printer (brand selection varies. includes printers already on sale) and that new printer could be worth $200+ and you'd get it for like $50 bucks after trade-ins and sale.

Last time we had a promo the same dude bought 5 of the same $229 printer for $70 bucks and told us he was straight re-selling them on craigslist for $200. =.="

The flyers say the store reserves the right to limit quantities and those promotions generally state in the fine print that there's a limit of 1 coupon per family.
