Other Recycling Initiatives

The category of Other Recycling Initiatives may give your school an option to recycle other items that could involve your community too. Many of these items are a detriment to the environment if discarded in the trash.

Many of these companies give postage paid address labels or containers in which to send back the items. Some items are revenue worthy for your school others are just the “right thing to do.”

Recycle inkjet and laser cartridges and cell phones. The following sites contain various methods for recycling these items. Compare each company to decide the best method for your school.
