Recycling Empty Ink and Toner Cartridges
See below for the best ways to recycle both ink and toner cartridges in the UK. Every cartridge kept away from landfill is a step in the right direction so thank you for taking the time to help us.
In addition to the free recycling bags we include with orders we also meet with recyclers around the country to discuss recycling best practices and the services they offer. All this to ensure the greenest practices which are free to use & have a “zero-landfill” policy.

Please note: Epson ink cartridges are essentially plastic-containers for your ink, and can simply be recycled in Plastic Recycling boxes. Epson cartridges should not go through this scheme, thanks!
Toner Cartridge Recycling
Due to transport and processing costs there is no single recommended toner recycling scheme available right now.
We're working hard to find one but until then we'd suggest checking local charities and libraries who may have collection boxes.
Recycling Original Toner Cartridges
If you're using genuine manufacturer toners the majority of brands have their own recycling schemes.
We've got a list of manufacturer recycling details here so pop on over for details on how to recycle through them.
