The collection will
be canceled in the event of rain. Participants are reminded that
only container glass will be accepted during the collection.
Container glass is any glass that was used to hold either a food or
beverage product. All colors of glass will be accepted.
The glass recycling program will no longer accept broken glass
due to safety issues.
Participants are asked to thoroughly rinse all containers and
remove all plastic or metal lids and rings. Labels, either foil or
paper, may be left on the containers. Due to the large volume of
glass being collected, the glass recycling program reserves the
right to refuse any glass that does not meet the preparation
guidelines.
The glass recycling program does not accept light bulbs or
fluorescent lights, window glass, mirrors, ceramics, dishware, or
CorningWare items. Participants are asked to comply with the glass
collection guidelines, as a single piece of ceramic material or a
light bulb can contaminate an entire load of glass.
Information on the county's recycling programs is available
through the Logan County Joint Solid Waste Agency. Logan County
residents can contact the agency's office at 217-732-9636 with
recycling questions.
