recyle ink cartridges

1707jo

I have just had to change my ink cartridge on my printer - does anyone know how I can recyle - are there companies where you can get something in return (like old mobiles)?
Thanks

Tesco does a free-post cartridge recycling scheme, you can get the envelopes in-store, you get clubcard points for certain makes of cartridge

Cartridge express. Not all cartridges are recyclable but if you email them with a list they will give you a quote. Generally with the firms that pay hard cash there's no payout until the value is over a certain amount, usually 20/25 quid.

...from a computer store. A multi-use three colour refill kit can cost about £4.99 or maybe a few quid more depending on bottle size. Refills for printers that use four or more inks will of course cost more (sometimes a lot more). Shop around for the best prices, don't rely on the larger better known stores being cheaper than some place run by a couple of acne-ridden geeks.
