Clean Planet Overview

Clean Planet offers multiple programs to return consumables for ease of use. To lessen the environmental impact of shipping, we encourage you to select the program that most closely meets your monthly usage of cartridges and bottles.

Small and home office customers: “Create Your Own Clean Planet Box”

The Create your own Clean Planet Box is intended for customers who use less than 3 consumables per month. Simply consolidate at least 5 Konica Minolta consumables in your own spare box (any box that you have on hand is fine to use), affix the UPS shipping label after printing it from this website, and ship. Please note: The Konica Minolta Clean Planet Program is available to customers of Konica Minolta only. The create your own clean planet box accepts only Konica Minolta branded consumables. Konica reserves the right to refuse shipments that are not in compliance with the program guidelines and/or return shipments that do not comply at the expense of the sender. 

Mid-sized customers: “Box Program”

The Box Program is ideal for customers who utilize between 4 and 200 cartridges per month. Each order includes 3 individual recycling boxes that are designed to hold 10 to 15 items (when placed into the recycling box without the original packaging). The boxes come complete with pre-affixed return UPS labels. When a box is full, simply secure the liner with the included zip ties, tape the lid, and schedule a pick up through UPS.

High-volume customers: “Gaylord Program”

The Gaylord Program is specifically for customers who use a large volume of consumables each month (greater than 200 pieces) and have the space to use a 4’ by 4’ by 4’ gaylord. Konica Minolta can arrange for the delivery and pickup of recycling pallets that hold a larger quantity of consumable items. Customers who lack the space can utilize the box program instead. Material should be placed into the lined gaylord without any original packing. To schedule a pick-up, contact us. Please note: gaylord kits are shipped via tractor-trailer and are roughly a 4’ by 8’ footprint on a single skid. Gaylords, liners, and lids are provided; however, the skids needed for return are not provided.
