We collect 3 different types of glass at the waste recycling point. Glass is 100% recyclable and it is, therefore, important that you separate it from other waste.
Shaped glassware includes oven dishes, vases and other shaped glassware that does not fit in the bottle bank. You can hand this in at the waste recycling point.
