Help Mira and the planet
Since 1994, Mira has been committed to educating the Quebec general public about the recycling of printer cartridges and cell phones. As well as representing concrete action for the environment, this initiative funds the training of many Mira dogs.
A two-part program
The cartridge recovery program is aimed at both businesses and individuals in Canada and helps to protect the environment and fund several Mira dogs.

How the program works

Sign upFree pick up service
On a simple call from you, Mira picks up your cartridges previously packed in a box and well identified. Our pick up service is free. A minimum of 15 cartridges is required to be picked up by Mira.
Recycling
All cartridges transit through the Mira Foundation warehouse in Neuville. They are sorted and sold through a tender process. Non-recoverable cartridges are destroyed responsibly. The cardboard and plastic of the parcels will also be recycled.
