Items to Recycle

What items does FundingFactory accept for recycling?

FundingFactory accepts toner and inkjet printer cartridges from our Qualifying List that are undamaged and not previously remanufactured, unless noted otherwise.

What is a Qualifying List?

FundingFactory's Qualifying List displays the toner and inkjet printer cartridges, including their values, that your group will earn credit for. This list updates on a quarterly basis. Items that are on the Qualifying List but are broken or remanufactured will not receive payment. View the Qualifying List.

Do you accept toner tubes for recycling?

No, FundingFactory does not take toner tubes. Please visit Earth911.com or contact your local recycling facility to find out how to dispose of these items responsibly.

I have cartridges that are not on FundingFactory's Qualifying List. What should I do with them?

If you send non-qualifying toner or inkjet printer cartridges to FundingFactory, you will not be paid for them.

Please send all non-qualifying items to your local recycling facility as it reduces packaging materials and transportation emissions.

Are you able to send back some of the items I shipped?

FundingFactory processes very high volumes of product each day. We are unable to send your items back to you.

Is there a risk associated with handling printer cartridges?

Printer cartridges are not considered toxic and do not pose a threat.
