Thank you for your continued commitment to the environment. Xerox
enables the take back of all Xerox Branded Imaging Supplies through the
Green World Alliance program. If the product is not listed on the
Xerox.com website, then you may return the item using a carrier of your
choice to our Authorized Recycling Partner at the following address:

Xerox will pay for the resource recovery of used supply items via "zero
waste" recycling. No waste to landfill is utilized and virtually all
materials are recovered, cleaned, and put back into the market.
Supplies used in our products are also designed for safe local disposal.
Some products may be recycled in your local mixed plastic stream. Xerox
also encourages customers to recycle or dispose of these empty
containers 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. You may also contact your local
waste provider for more information.

Can I ship back full pallets? UPS is unable to accept shipments that have been packaged on a pallet. They will accept large quantities provided they are individually labeled.

Reading the tracking number(s) to the UPS associate when scheduling the pick up should resolve the issue.
Can I print more than one return label? Once you select a supply item, you will be allowed to print a maximum of 15 labels. After that you will be required to start the process over by selecting the supply item again.
Will I be charged a pick up fee by UPS? All fees associated with used supply returns are paid for by Xerox. This is controlled through the unique tracking number on the pre-paid UPS labels.
