Anyone can help me find a good printer around TORONTO, CANADA area for recycled paper printing. It seems many print houses do not carry this option, the ones that do their prices is 3 times higher than normal printing.
Ideas and suggestions would be helpful. I need to use the recycled logo the 3 arrows going around for a project, I hear in order to use that the paper has to have some percentage of recycled material already in it.
Thanks.

Recycled stock fairly high-priced, but a lot of stocks have some recycled content in them, it shouldn't be hard to find. What size of work are you doing? What is the % that is needed?

Well the one I am looking into is the FSC paper. It seems recycling is not in big demand for smaller projects but I have noticed that bigger richer companies are using it more and more.

check their shipping costs... it might not be too expensive (depending on the quantity you order) since it's shipping from within the same country.
Business cards don't weigh that much, only about 2 pounds per 500 (or was that 2 pounds for 1000? It's been a while since I had to calculate shipping costs).
