Recycle Your Printer Ink Cartridges

It amazes me that today people still throw out their empty ink cartridges.  If you go to the store and buy ink cartridges for your printer and you use them up, these cartridges are known as "virgins".  Virgin ink cartridges are in high demand for refilling. 

Again, you can save them and when you get a dozen or so, you can sell them on eBay.  You can also pay companies to refill them for you or try refilling them yourself if you know how.  If you want to refill your own cartridges or start a business refilling ink cartridges Click Here!

One company on the web will send you a postage paid bag for your empty ink cartridge and then you mail it in to them for refilling.  This company is Inkwise and they charge about 26 dollars to refill two cartridges. 

There are many companies that will pay you for your empty ink cartridges so please do not toss them in the trash.  If you don't want to sell them on eBay or you do not want to have them refilled, then try selling them directly to a company on the web.

Here are several companies that will buy your empty inkjet cartridges:

Inkjet Cartridge Recycle Co.

Toner Buyer

Cash for empties

There are plenty of ways that you can be environmentally responsible when it comes to inkjet printer cartridges.  Please don't throw them in the trash unless they cannot be recycled.
