Glass is not to be left at the site prior to the
hours of the collection. The collection will be canceled in event of
inclement weather.Participants are reminded that only container
glass will be accepted during the collection. Container glass is any
glass that originally held either a food or beverage product. All
colors of glass will be accepted. The glass recycling program does
not accept broken glass due to safety issues.
Participants are asked to thoroughly rinse all containers and to
remove all plastic or metal lids, sleeves, 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
