Each Cartridge Counts
Fact: Nearly 300,000,000 empty toner cartridges are thrown into landfills rather than recycled each year.
Fact: Approximately 90% of printer cartridges are reusable, but only 20% are being recycled.
Fact: Manufacturing each new toner cartridge requires 3 quarts of oil on average. This equates to 260 million gallons of oil each year.
MCPc believes that reducing, reusing and recycling requires a commitment beyond traditional business practices.

- Ship Cartridges with Prepaid Labels
- Your prepaid shipping labels will be sent out within two business days via U.S. mail. Each label is marked with a corresponding order number. If you do not use all of the labels provided, please discard the extras, they cannot be used for future orders. **
- Receive a Rebate
- Once received at our recycling facility, your cartridges will be unpacked and inspected for reuse. You will receive your recycling rebate for all qualified cartridges within four-to-six weeks after the end of a calendar quarter (i.e. product recycled in Jan-Mar will be paid 4-6 weeks after the end of March). Please note — Payment will not be issued until a minimum amount of $15 has been achieved.
* You should request one shipping label for each shipping carton or bundle of cartridges you plan to return. You may bundle up to eight individual cartridge boxes on one shipping label (150 lbs. max). For best results, all shipments should be protected from potential damage while en route to our recycling facility. Broken cartridges are assigned no value. Always try to pack cartridges in original packaging. If original boxes and inserts are not available you can use peanuts, bubble wrap or other protective material with a sturdy shipping carton.
** Apply one label to each shipping carton or bundle of cartridges to be returned. If you have a regular UPS pickup, simply give the packages to the driver – no paperwork is necessary. You may also take your cartridges to any UPS counter drop-off location.
