Recycling Glass
|
Clean unbroken glass from Wellington houses is put into a recycling crate, separate to the paper and metal recycling bag. Householders can buy an additional glass recycling crate from the city council . You'll also see glass recycling bins around the city.
As apartments look after their own recycling, put glass in the right recycling bin. But if your apartment block doesn't have one, then you need to put it into the general rubbish. Ask your Body Corporate or Property Manager if they could add a glass recycling facility if you notice a high level of glass going into the general rubbish. Don't put your glass on the ground in the rubbish room as a silent protest though. Wellington glass goes to Auckland to be recycled. Watch this video (2minutes) for an intro into how glass is recycled here. |
