Setting up your collection programme
- All you need to do is provide a collection point where the printer cartridges and mobile phones can be placed for recycling.
- When you have 20 items or more from our price list, request a FREE collection online or by calling 01372 751170. See our packaging guidelines for details of how to pack your cartridges to prevent damage.
- Why not get local businesses to recycle their cartridges and help raise money for your school? We can collect directly from them for free! See our letter templates on the Resources page.
FREEPOST Recycling Envelopes
A popular and easy way to raise funds is through our FREEPOST Recycling Envelopes. These are great for distributing to parents and local businesses. The joy of this system is that the cartridges are posted straight to our warehouse by the user, so there's less work for you!
Once your account is set up we will send you further envelopes as and when you need them. You can order them online or call us and quote your account code and quantity required.
Tips on promoting your collection scheme:
- Seek the co-operation of fellow teachers members and pupils.
- Use our free promotional materials to kick-start your programme.
- Develop further fundraising ideas through pupils, parents, suppliers, friends of the school, local business etc.
- Hand out explanatory leaflets and flyers which we can provide.
