Participants are reminded that only container glass will be accepted
during the collection. Container glass is any glass that held 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 to 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,
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 by
contacting the Logan County Joint Solid Waste Agency Office at
217-732-9636 or at the
www.co.logan.il.us website by selecting "Joint
Solid Waste."
