[LM_NET] TARGET: Ink Cartridge Recycling Program Recommendation

[Alissa Cornelius <alissa.cornelius@GMAIL.COM>]

Hello LM_Netters,

Like many schools (and districts, for that matter), we go through a lot of
ink cartridges throughout the course of the year. Rather than sending them
to a landfill via our dumpster, I'd like to get involved in an ink cartridge
recycling program. What I'd really like to do is participate in the kind of
recycling program that also serves as a fundraiser for our school like the
one described at www.fundingfactory.com. Is anyone out there already doing
this? Can anyone recommend a particular company that you trust, offers a
high yield on your recycled materials, and accepts a wide variety of both
ink jet and laser printer cartridges? Or, are there any companies I should
avoid? (We mostly use HP products.) I'll post a hit of the replies (unless
you expressly tell me not to share your reply, in which case I will exclude
it from the HIT.)

Thanks!
