Green Bin Glass recycling

Glass Bottles and Jars Can Go in Household Green Recycling Bins from 1st August

This includes all colours of glass and means that wine and spirit bottles, beer bottles, pop bottles, olive oil bottles, jam jars, pasta sauce jars, coffee jars and even the jar of the spread people either love or hate can be conveniently put in the green recycling bin.

Only glass bottles and jars can go in the green bin. Other things like oven-proof dishes, light bulbs, window or drinking glass do not melt at the same temperature as recyclable bottles and jars so should be put in the black bin.
