8. Do We Need Any Special Boxes For Collecting The Cartridges?
No. Any collection box will do. Our mission is to protect the environment and recycle. Adding more boxes to the environment, just to advertise our name, is contrary to our mission. All of our cartridge shipments come in boxes that you can get from any grocery store. Produce sized boxes work the best. They hold a lot and they are not too big or too hard to handle. You will need to place a hand-decorated box in a place where your supporters can drop off their cartridges.

9. What Are Some of The Biggest Mistakes We Can Make In Our Recycling Program?
We have seen a lot of interesting things over the past 5 years, however, some of the common mistakes are:

• Sending in cartridges that are not eligible for recycling


• Sending in non-virgin, previously remanufactured cartridges


• Forgetting to take laser cartridges out of their original boxes


• Failing to wrap your laser cartridges in newspaper to prevent damage in shipping


• Sending In Epson Cartridges. Epson Cartridges are not eligible for Recycling


• Forgetting to take the Tomatoes out of the vegetable box before you pack your cartridges for shipping. (Really messy!)

10. What If We Have A Business That Is Willing To Give Us A Lot of Cartridges?
Good things like this happen all of the time. If you have such a business supporter, we want to make it really easy for them so they will keep supporting you. INKBANK DIRECT is our program where we will send the UPS truck directly to the business with a prepaid label, so that you business supporter is not inconvenienced by having to bring the cartridges to you. All they need to do is put a note in the box indicating that the shipment is for your organization. A call, fax or email from them, letting us know the box is ready for shipment is all we need.
