Community Curbside Best Practices

Strong community curbside programs follow these guidelines for glass recycling outreach:

  • Inform residents what can and cannot be recycled curbside on their website, flyers, and on recycling containers

  • Provide instructions for glass recycling preparation: Clean and empty bottles and jars, separate metal lids

  • Include pictures of acceptable glass bottles and jars

  • Engage with residents about glass recycling at events


Use MRF videos and photos tell the story of what happens to recyclables after they leave the curb or drop-off center.
