  • Or recycle them by donating to charity. Just pick up one of the freepost envelopes from a charity shop.Alternatively contacy ActionAid, who seem to accecpt a wider variety than most charities. One type of cartridge isn't suitable for recycling. I forget which one, but I'm sure someone will be along soon , who knows.

  • Ive sold a couple, and bought a couple, on ebay. If you are selling them, they need to be untampered with(not refilled by you at any time). The purpose of buying them empty is to refil them at home, knowing they have only been emptied once. I bought hp cartridges for about £3 each, cost me about £1 to refil(maybe less) and well worth the money as now I always have a spare. Black cartridges are easiest to refil, as you can overflow the tanks of colour ones and then the colours mix.

    Thanks - I just put them in the RNIB bags now. Can't see how people can actually throw them away!
