If the product is not listed on the Xerox.com website, it should be recycled locally. In some cases, the cost of transporting certain empty bottles and cartridges back to Xerox is high, while the environmental benefit is small. On average, a return travels 1,200 miles, resulting in the consumption of fuel resources and the generation of carbon dioxide and air emissions. Contact your local waste management provider.
closeWhat do I do with supplies that Xerox does not accept?
Supplies used in our products are designed for safe local disposal (trash). Some products may be recycled in your local mixed plastic stream. Xerox encourages customers to recycle or dispose of these empty containers locally. Contact your local waste management provider for more information.
