CEO's of Nevada Power, Nevada State Bank and Wells Fargo Bank at a local school recording Public Service Announcements.  

 

 

 



 

Hundreds of schools, school districts and businesses are already on board, actively funding school programs such as Music, Drama and Athletics and helping preserve the environment.

These includes State Restaurant Associations, numerous State School Boards Associations, hundreds of schools and businesses, utility companies, government agencies and non-profit organizations.

As a sample of the corporate and marketing partnerships, on Friday, Feb. 17th, CEO’s of Wells Fargo Bank, Nevada State Bank and Nevada Power Company as well as leaders from the Clark County School District (Nevada) recorded Public Service Announcements (radio and TV) challenging businesses and chambers to participate in the program. Similar partnerships are underway throughout the country.

Did You Know?

Over 300 million cartridges and over 55 million cell phones are thrown away each year.

Each laser toner cartridge recycled saves 3 quarts of oil that is required to produce a new cartridge.

Over 400,000,000 printer cartridges are sold in the U.S. every year and less that 20% of these are recycled.

Every cartridge that is discarded in our landfills takes over 1,000 years to decompose.

Every year inkjet and laser cartridges account for over 200 million pounds of solid waste to our nation's landfills.

FREQUENTY ASKED QUESTIONS
   
How much does it cost to participate?
  The program is free. Fedex delivers and picks up boxes for free. We provide you with a customized webpage and other marketing material.
How much revenue can I expect?
  The value depends on what is recycled. Qualified Inkjet cartridges are typically worth $0.50 to $2.00. Recent toners are worth upto $10 and cell phones are worth between $.25 and $9.00. In any case, a report on what each cartridge/phone you recycle is worth is available online. A typical box of cartridges is worth $10 to $50. A 20-30 person office can be expected to generate $100 worth of recycled product in a year.
How is the revenue distributed?
  Your school receives 78% of every dollar received from whatever is recycled by your school and businesses/individuals and retail locations signed up under your school. ASP keeps 22% to administer/market the program free of cost to the chambers and schools.

In addition, you receive 28% of funds received from recycling by your local chamber of commerce and its members.
Why is it that the value for the cartridges you pay is in some cases lower than those others pay?
  This recycling program aims to make recycling very simple. We will accept everything and guarantee that nothing is thrown into landfills. Others, on the other hand, insist that you recycle only what is on their list and will deduct shipping costs if you send them an unqualified piece. We provide attractive recycling boxes and offer a strong-cause related opportunity to your members.
