Did you know that...
...Yearly, over 500 million ink jet cartridges and 70 million laser cartridges will be sold in the United States. Every year over 400 million cartridges, with combined weight of 200 million pounds, are discarded into our nation's landfills. The plastic used in a typical ink jet or laser cartridge takes 1,000 years to decompose. What happens to our trash? According to the EPA, 67% of it is sent to landfills, 15% is incinerated and less than 18% is recycled.
Every day in the United States, each of us will send the equivalent of 4.5 pounds of trash into our landfills. Approximately 9-12% is made up of plastics. This massive pile of garbage takes up space and will need to be monitored for years to come, making it a serious problem for the next generation. Join us as we create a better tomorrow for the children, by recycling inkjet and laser cartridges in our RECYCLE PROGRAM.
Please send your Empty Cartridges to:

PO Box 394
