You collect empty printer cartridges and old mobile phones by getting students and staff interested in the Collect4Uni scheme and then put the items in collection boxes in your University. We will collect them from you for recycling. We will pay you for the cartridges and phones that we can recycle!

The Collect4Uni scheme is completely FREE and simple. There is no charge for anything that we give you as part of our scheme; as we factor in our costs to the prices that we pay you for recyclable items. So, it is free to join, all resources are provided free of charge and collection of your goods is free too. We even operate a freephone support number.

Collect4Uni Coordinators will be given a username and a password so that you can visit our web site at any time to download (and then print and photocopy if you wish) posters and leaflets, to help you make the most of the Collect4Uni scheme. Our web site will give suggestions and advice.

When your collection boxes are full you will need to contact us so that we can arrange a collection. Straightforward packaging guidelines are given inside the log in section. Collection will usually be within one or two days of your request.

When the items arrive at our collection depot they will be sorted and counted. We will prepare a schedule of what was sent and forward it to you for invoicing. Inside the log in section the Collect4Uni Coordinator will be able to view how much the items are worth. We aim to pay you by cheque or BACS within a month of every collection valued at £10 or over. Please be patient however, as we do get some very busy periods!

The Collect4Uni and Collect4 recycling schemes are operated by Johnson Recycling Ltd. (a licensed broker and carrier of waste). We believe that protecting the environment through sustainable development is important and our schemes are an ideal way to get the whole community involved with saving our planet.
