In a world where many of us attempt to use our resources to the best of our ability, the idea of disposing of used items properly is a big concern. When it comes to copier cartridges, there are several great ways to rid yourself of used units and still feel good about what you are doing.

One of the first places to look is your local office supply store. Many of them offer items ranging from a percentage discount to a free ream of copy paper when you bring in your used copier cartridges. If your local store has a program like this, you can ensure the used units are being processed properly and you even get to save a little on your office supplies.

If no office supply store in your area has a redemption program for used copier cartridges, check with your local city or town government. Many municipalities have gotten into the recycling trend as a way to promote wise use of resources. Your city probably receives a discount on purchasing new copier cartridges for their offices, which means you would be helping to keep the cost of city government down.

Local charities can often put your used copier cartridges toward a good cause as well. Whether by turning them in for a redemption program or actually refilling the cartridges themselves and selling them as refurbished units, you help the charity to expand its resources so that more people in your community can be helped.

Some manufacturers include postage paid containers in the box with new cartridges. You can use the container to send back your used copier cartridges. Often you will receive a discount coupon that can be used to purchase new units, as you need them.

There are a number of ways that you can dispose of your used cartridges and even make things a little better for your or for your community. Check around your town and see what options are open to you.
