Garvey's can help! In an effort to make it easier for you to start a recycling program at your office, Garvey's has announced four recycling initiatives to get you started: Toner, Cardboard, Batteries and Computer and Electronics Recycling Programs. |

1. Toner Recycling Program |
Garvey's toner recycling program called "Recycle for a Reason" raises funds from old recycled cartridges for a different local charity each quarter. 100% of the funds raised are donated. Since 2007, we have raised over $50,000 for local charities such as Mercy Home for Boys & Girls, Easter Seals, Misericordia, Jane Addams Hull House, Girl Scouts, Rotary Club, American Heart Association, Lawrence Hall Youth Services, Youth Services of Glenview/Northbrook, and Chicago Metropolitan Battered Women's Network. It's a win/win situation, and it's never too late to start. Simply collect your empty cartridges and give them to your garvey's driver whenever it's convenient! (View PDF) |

2. Cardboard Recycling Program |
In addition to recycling toner cartridges, we will be collecting and recycling cardboard. Simply flatten any cardboad boxes received with your order, and when convenient give the pile to a Garvey's driver. Garvey's will either re-use or recycle the boxes with our cardboard bailer. This should cut down on your waste pick-up considerably. |

3. Battery Recycling Program |
Looking for ways to recycle your old batteries? Garvey's is now collecting and recycling used batteries that were purchased from us. This program is easy to use. There are no special containers for the return. All you have to do is place old/unused batteries into an envelope or small box, depending upon the amount to be recycled, and hand it back to a Garvey's driver. The driver will then bring them back here, where we will consolidate them and ship them off to Waste Management for recycling. |

4. Computer and Electronics Recycling Program |
|
| |
NEW! Garvey's will recycle old computer monitors, printers and electronic equipment. You can collect these items and the Garvey's driver will pick them up when delivering an order. All equipment will be taken to Sims Recycling Center where it is dismantled and made into new products. |
