The ReCollective repurposes used Office and School supplies with local creative reuse partners!
What is included in the October ReCo pick:
- office supplies
- school supplies
- paper, organizers
- staplers
- crayons, pens & pencils, etc.
Please only put in items that fit within the ReCo pick canvas bag.
Help us preserve the life of our ReCo Pick bags by putting anything with ink or bleeding into a separate sealed zip lock or tied-off plastic grocery bag (which we will recycle).
For October The ReCollective is doing a bonus material, used Printer Cartridges, which will go to Dazz-Cycle in Apex, NC for recycling.
Dazz-Cycle will accept the following cartridges:
- Cartridges that accommodate a computer printer – laser or inkjet
- No copy machine toners
- Once-used virgin OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) genuine empties
- No generic or “off” brands. The best way to determine if a cartridge is a virgin genuine OEM empty is to look at the sticker on the cartridge. The cartridge must have an HP, Lexmark, Dell etc logo on the label.
- No cartridges which have already been refilled. When a label refers to “for use in” or “compatible with” it has already been refilled.
Please put the cartridges in a bag that is sealed or tied shut. You may place this bag next to the waterproof bag on your pickup day.
