Quick Tip: Recycle that old printer

You know the obvious recyclable materials – plastic water bottles, cardboard, tin cans etc. – but don’t forget about the not-as-obvious items you’re through with that can be re-used.

Recycle your empty printer, copier and fax cartridges.  They can be refilled and re-manufactured several times.  Look in the phone book or on-line under ” Computer Supplies and parts” or “office supplies” to find businesses that recycle old parts.
