About
You recycle stuff with us…you get money! It’s that simple. Schools and Non-Profits can participate by sending us stuff* (shipping’s on our dime) and we send you a check.
What stuff you ask. Items a lot of people throw away! Can you believe it? Cell Phones & PDAs, Empty ink and toner cartridges, DVD’s that have been watched a billion times and your sick of, Video Games and Consoles, Laptops, Digital Cameras (because a new and better one seems to come out every 6 mos.), and even iPods (see comment about ‘new and better one’.). Did we mention by doing the above your bettering the environment. Nice little bonus.

Do you recycle regular phones and parts? If not, where?

That’s a tough one. We actually do accept larger amounts of regular phones, typically from businesses. If you only have a small quantity of say, home phones, you might be best to take them to a local recycling center. If you do have a large amount you can email us at support@cartridgesforkids.com.
Thanks for recycling.

I am the person who receives the cartridges from the schools in Greensville County ,Virginia. I have been told that there are several types of cartridges that you do no accept. I do not want to waist the school’s money sending a cartridge you do not accept. Considering I am a volunteer, rather than my having to go through you list of OK cartridges for everyone, can you please send me a list of the the common cartridges you do not accept.
Thank you
Gloria Robinson

Thanks for addressing this. We’re glad you’re taking the time to sort out those cartridges that cannot be recycled. This helps us keep shipping costs down and allows us to pay you, the participant, more. I’ve forwarded this to one of our support staff and you should hear from them soon. In the meantime the collection lists at http://www.cartridgesforkids.com provide you with a list of the items we currently accept and how much they are worth to those participating.
Thanks for recycling.
