Recycle and make money for our funds

RECYCLE AND MAKE MONEY FOR OUR PROJECTS

Beckenham Soroptimists have entered into partnership with Recycle4charity to promote the recycling of inkjet cartridges, laser & toner cartridges and mobile phones. Thereby ensuring two ‘wins’- reduction of rubbish going into landfill and money for the local, national and international charities we support.

Mobile phones

Unfortunately the recycling value of each type of phone fluctuates daily and so we find it difficult to state a particular donation amount.

The exact donation amount that goes to the charity of your choice is 50% of the recycling revenue received, as we will pay for all shipping, handling, promotional material and administration.

Some phones can raise as much as £30 for the charity of your choice

Don’t forget that broken, faulty, and locked phones still have a value!

Empty Inkjet Cartridges

Inkjets can be found in printers, fax machines, and most multifunction equipment. As a general rule – if it fits in the palm of your hand and has a small metal circuit board on it – it’s an inkjet! </

Please Do Not Send Any Epson cartridges! They are ink tanks, not inkjets and unfortunately cannot be recycled.

Our parent company, BCMY Limited will donate £1 for each ‘virgin’ inkjet (i.e. never been recycled before) that we receive from our list of wanted inkjets – see below for our definitive ‘most wanted’ list.

Unfortunately we can’t offer any donation for damaged inkjets, so it may be an idea to pad the boxes out with newspaper to prevent any damage in transit.

Most Dell and Xerox machines also use inkjets that can be recycled.
