OfficeMax ink recycling program
In 2005, OfficeMax began accepting any empty HP, Dell, or Lexmark inkjet or toner cartridges in exchange for a free OfficeMax brand ream of paper, with a limit of 5 per customer, per day, or an option to take $3.00 off their current purchase. (The same limit of 5 applied to the $3.00 off, with a minimum of purchase amount that matched or exceeded the coupon). This was then changed in October 2006 due to many customers abusing the program. At that time, OfficeMax only offered the $3.00 instore discount, with a limit of 5, for only HP, Lexmark, Dell and Canon. In the fall of 2007 Canon was no longer participating in the program. The cartridges must also be brand name, and cannot be previously recycled or refilled cartridges. Currently OfficeMax only accepts HP, Lexmark and Dell brand name cartridges. Off brand cartridges that are HP, Lexmark or Dell compatibles are not accepted. There is a limit of 5 cartridges per customer per day.
In July 2008, OfficeMax restructured their ink recycling program. Customers will no longer receive an in store credit for cartridges returned. Customers bringing in qualifying empty ink cartridges will instead receive a three ($3) reward to their MaxPerks account for up to ten (10) cartridges and thirty ($30) dollars in rewards a week. OfficeMax is only accepting geniune HP, DELL and Lexmark cartridges. Customers can check on their rewards through the new MaxPerks website. More Information to come.
Officemax A Day Made Better
On October, 2, 2007 at 10am OfficeMax in partnership with Adopt-A-Classroom surprised 1,000 teachers with a box of supplies worth about $1,200. Majority of schools selected were Title 1 schools, in which 40% or more of the student body is subsidized with the free school lunch program. The teacher selected was nominated by the school's principal based on merit.
Officemax Controversies
In 2005, OfficeMax was investigated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in regards to "accounting for vendor income." According to OfficeMax, the company had falsified $3.3 million in rebate claims owed by its suppliers. Six employees were fired in connection with the issue. In early November, 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission completed the probe and recommended no enforcement action.
In 2008 OfficeMax was targeted by protesters asking it to keep a promise that was made to protect indigenous rights. Logging in Canadas Whiskey Jack Forest to the supply paper pulp industry is opposed by the Asubpeeschoseewagong First Nation people.
On June 6, 2008 it was announced through the stores that there will be a massive restructuring of employees, taking place on June 25. The new employee structure will consist of one Store Manager, one Assistant Manager, a Merchandising Manager (in select stores) one Supervisor, a Furniture Specialist (who will have keys to the store), a Tech Specialist (who will have keys to the store), Associates and a Cashier. ImPress (copy center) employees will not be affected. All current OfficeMax Supervisors have to reapply to see if they will keep their jobs at a lower pay rate, which is the speculation since they haven't announced the pay rate scale, similar to what Circuit City did in 2007. The way that the stores are being restructured appears to be for logistical purposes, resulting in every associate being involved with freight and receiving. There are several thousand associates that will be unemployed because of this.
Officemax Going Green
In spring 2008 OfficeMax started to sell recycled products for a company called TerraCycle. As of right now OfficeMax carries trash and recycling cans (made from computer cases), Eco binders (made from 100% recycled cardboard and paper), natural all purpose and window cleaners (made from old 1 liter soda bottles and non-toxic cleaners using a plant based formula) and pencil cases (made from Kool-Aid and Capri Sun pouches). The products and packaging are made entirely from waste, reducing the amount of garbage going to landfills. OfficeMax offers and stocks more than 1,700 products with recycled content.
In the ImPress department customers can upgrade from 30 percent to 100 percent post-consumer paper for a limited time at no charge. All OfficeMax ImPress self-serve copy machines have been outfitted with "Think in Green" stickers to encourage customers to take advantage of this offer.
