Tips
List your cell phone collection box sites with the AmericanCellPhoneDrive.org. This will let everyone in your community know where to donate cell phones.
Make sure you receive the MAXIMUM VALUE for your collection by keeping ink cartridges separate from your other items like cell phones, because ink cartridges have a tendency to leak. The ink can transfer onto cell phones and other electronics if you place ink cartridges in the same box. If you do, then this can render cell phones and other items invaluable.
When you're ready to ship your collection, add newspaper or other lightweight material to fill the box so contents won't shift during shipping.
Here's the difference between 'virgin' and 'non-virgin' toners: virgins are empty inkjet and toner cartridges that have NEVER been refilled, whereas non-virgin are empty inkjet and toner cartridges that have been previously refilled.
