How to recycle glass bottles
How should I prepare bottles?
Empty them and remove caps and corks; rinsing is not required. Where containers are separated by colour, put white, green and brown glass into their own containers.
What does not belong in the bottle bank?
Ceramics, porcelain, window glass, mirrors, drinking glasses and light bulbs melt differently and spoil the recycled glass.
What about deposit bottles?
Bottles with a deposit go back to the shop: you get the money back and the bottle is reused.
