Recycle Your Ink Cartridges
We’ve partnered with Recycle4Charity to make good use of all your used ink cartridges and convert them into life-saving foodbank items,
Did you know that by recycling ink cartridges you are not only stopping them from going into a landfill site but also helping us raise money?
For each ink cartridge recycled we will receive
up to a £2 donation.
Simply drop off your used ink cartridges in a sealed, labelled bag in the foodbank donation baskets at both the men’s and women’s entrances.
We cannot accept any toner/laser cartridges.
Receive a collection box for your home, business or office.
You can do the same if you’re back at the office, or if you go through cartridges quickly at home/business
get a FREE collection box here.
