Why We Don't Take Glass

Currently our recycling processor does not accept glass. With record setting lows across commodity markets, every effort needs to be taken to maintain the highest value for commodities and keep recycling costs to a minimum.
Glass has never been a high value commodity and is often sorted out of recycled material and sent to landfills. Broken glass contaminates other recyclable material and decreases the value of all the materials collected. Contamination in single stream recycling can also cause other items that would otherwise be recyclable to also be disposed of in a landfill.
A national study of recycling sorting centers concluded that 40 percent of glass brought in ends up leaving as garbage and most of the rest goes to the landfill to be used as daily cover. This causes a drain on other valuable resources and in turn can be seen as less beneficial to the environement.
