Landfill Diversion

Recycle Office Consumables

What Is It?

Employers often purchase office consumables, such as toner cartridges, inkjet cartridges, disks, cassettes, and printer ribbons, in large quantities. These consumables can be reused and/or recycled to minimize their impact on the environment.

Benefits

Recycling consumables slows the amount of waste headed for landfills, and it is an easy thing to do. For example, many manufacturers and distributors accept empty cartridges for both their specific brand and other companies’. Businesses can also take advantage of the rebates offered by these manufacturers and distributors to save cost.
