» Empty Toner Cartridge Service
This free-to-use UK-mainland service accepts most cartridges from laser printers (the type normally found in offices) to put them to reuse, or recycling if they cannot be reused.
- This service is a better deal for the environment: most cartridges are reused, and reusing saves more energy than recycling.
- Your cartridges will make a social difference: each collection will raise at least £5.00 for our three partner charities.
Your cartridges can be either empty or unused, and must be:
- Bigger than the size of a clenched fist
- AND use a toner powder (instead of liquid ink)
- AND must NOT be toner 'bottles' or toner 'kits'
N.B. If you have any smaller cartridges which use a liquid ink - 'ink' cartridges normally found in home printers - please send these separately to us under our Empty Ink Cartridge Service, even if you also have toner cartridges.
Now, Check Your Cartridges
1. Original or Compatible?
Make sure you know if you have 'original' cartridges or 'compatible' cartridges.
- Original cartridges are made by the original manufacturer of the printer, and clearly display the logo of the printer manufacturer on the cartridge and its packaging.
- Compatible cartridges have been refilled, remanufactured or recycled by a different company than the company that made the printer.
2. Find the Model Numbers of Your Cartridges
This is normally a short code displayed clearly on the front of the cartridge, or on the cartridge's box.
3. Check them on the List
You must have 12 original, undamaged cartridges from this list to qualify for a free collection. Your counting must not include any compatible cartridges.
If you qualify for a free collection, then we will also pick up any compatible toner cartridges, or any not on the list, at the same time.
If you do not have 12, and cannot wait until you do, please read this guide for alternative solutions.
Please do not under any circumstances send any of these in the post to us.

Packaging and Storing Your Cartridges
Instead of sending you collection boxes, we ask that you reuse the boxes your cartridges come in. Alternatively, you can use other boxes you have if they are strong enough.
This ensures maximum money is raised for our charities from your cartridges, and is better for the environment: reusing existing resources. Your boxes are recycled after the cartridges have been reused.
When storing using the boxes of the cartridges:
- Put 2 cartridges into each box if possible
- Tape the boxes together in sets of 4 [as 2x2] or 6 [as 2x3] for the courier to take away
Finally, Arrange a Collection
Please call Office Green on 08700 50 20 50.
If you do not already have an account, please ask to set up a new account under account CART001.
Ask Office Green to arrange a collection for your cartridges. They will give you a date on which the courier will call, and a reference number to put on each of your packages.
If you need a waste transfer note, Officegreen can supply this for your records after the collection has taken place and your cartridges processed.
Thank you for helping charities and the environment!
Please return to this web site each time you want to arrange a collection - our valuable cartridge list changes each month, and the donation instructions are liable to change.
Keep Up to Date
To keep up to date with our services and the charities - for example, when the list of accepted cartridges changes - please give us your email address for occasional mailings.
You'll get no more than one message a month, you can unsubscribe in one click using a link at the bottom of our mailings, and your details will not be passed on.
