All households have a fortnightly collection of glass for recycling.
You can use your blue box / basket or purple-wheeled bin (if you live in a flat) for all types and colours of glass bottles and jars.
We empty your glass container every fortnight at the same time as your blue recycling bin. We put the glass into a separate compartment of the recycling collection lorry.
Please do not overfill your glass box. For safety reasons we will not be able to empty it, if any bottles or jars are above the rim of the box.
Check your bin collection day
To find out what day your bin is emptied, use our bin collection day finder.
