Glass (windows, crockery and mirrors)

Window glass and mirrors can be taken to Awaba Management Facility for disposal (fees apply).

Window, crockery and mirror glass can’t be recycled in your yellow-lidded recycling bin.

This is because they are made of a toughened glass containing chemicals that can’t be recycled with your glass bottles and jars. These types of glass do not melt at the same temperature as bottles and jars. If these types of glass enter the glass recycling process, it can result in new containers being rejected.

Crockery glass can be disposed in your garbage bin.

Glass and mirrors are also not accepted as part of your bulky waste collection.
