Integrity Toner supports and encourages the recycling of empty imaging products. To this end we have a program in place that makes it easy for you, our customer, to return and recycle all your empty ink and toner cartridges.
Our recycling goal is twofold: keeping ink and toner cartridges from ending up in landfills and supporting two organizations that keep the oceans and the environment healthy.
While some companies will offer you credit or even pay you for your empties Integrity Toner’s recycling campaign does not. The reason for this is that our primary goal is to keep all empty cartridges from ever reaching a landfill. We feel this approach to recycling will have the most profound impact on the environment. Unfortunately, the only way to do this is to accept any and all cartridges from our customers.
This approach precludes us from rewarding our customers directly because the empties brokers (the industry that buys back empty cartridges for the remanufacturing industry) will only take back and pay premiums on specific OEM empties. They want nothing to do with non-OEM cartridges. However, over 95% of the cartridges our customers buy from us are non-OEM cartridges. Thus, the cartridges we will be recycling together are not going to be the one sought after by the empties brokers.
Instead, most of the cartridges our customers will recycle will be broken down and sold for scrap materials. This approach, obviously, yields very little profit per cartridge and thus does not add up to any great financial gain for the individual customer. Nevertheless, with thousands of Integrity Toner customers joining the effort even the few dollars generated by selling the empties for scrap materials are doing several great things. First, we are keeping the empties from reaching landfills. Second, the scrap materials are saving money and generating new jobs. We are also decreasing the need for the mining of new materials. Moreover, the small but important revenue generated will be contributed, on your behalf, to The Green World Campaign and The Ocean Project.

Our Recycling Policies
Integrity Toner accepts every brand, model and type of imaging supplies for recycling purposes. Simply put all your cartridges in their original box (if you still have it) or into one large box.
Then, go to our link and print out a shipping label. Note: if you ship us your empties for recycling and do not use one of our labels the products will not be designated for recycling and may be returned to you. Please use our shipping labels.
Adhere the shipping label to your box and mail the box to us. We thank you for your efforts to help in keeping the environment clean.
