Yes, you can! Many types of glass can be recycled via the Recycling for Charity bottle banks at your nearest local recycling centers.
How should I recycle glass?
- Glass containers such as bottles and jars should be cleaned and any tops or corks removed before recycling.
- When using bottle banks, put the glass in the correct bank for clear, green or brown glass. Blue glass goes in with green glass.
- Only use bottle banks during the day – the sound of smashing bottles can make a real racket which disturbs people who live nearby!
- Remember not to litter the area around the bottle bank with your empty bags and boxes.
You can’t recycle: window panes, light bulbs, glass ovenware or electrical equipment. Dispose of these carefully with your normal household waste.
