Glass Recycling

Glass is easily recycled, saving energy and raw materials. It is recycled back into bottles and jars. New uses are also being developed, for example as road aggregate.

 

Glass cannot be recycled in the kerbside recycling bins because it breaks and shards of glass contaminate the newspapers, making them unfit for recycling.

 

Please make every effort to take all glass bottles and jars to the Glass Banks around the Borough.
