City containers for Glass

The glass collected in the city containers will be broken down and sent for remelting. This is not as good as reuse, but it allows for the recycling of a much wider variety of bottles.

If the gray or green container is not available, glass can be placed in the blue container for plastic (contents will be sorted by department staff).

  • Glass bottles and jars
  • Vials
  • Perfume bottles, deodorants
