Glass Recycling
Glass is still one of the most recyclable materials generated in homes, and should not be trashed. Glass bottles and jars are 100% recyclable and can be recycled for reuse endlessly without losing any quality, which makes the effort to put these items back into the recycling ecosystem even more important.
Acceptable Types of Glass
Check the flyer to see what can be recycled(PDF, 452KB) in the Traveling Glass Bin program.
Glass Preparation
Containers should be empty and rinsed. Lids and labels don't need to be removed. Bags and boxes used to carry the glass to the recycling bin must be discarded off-site, do not place these in the glass bin.
