Which bin for glass bottles and jars?
Usual answer in the UK
Glass Glass box or bin
Glass bottles and jars are collected by almost every council, sometimes in a separate box or bin and sometimes in mixed recycling.
Also possible: Mixed recycling bin.
How to prepare it
Rinse them. Metal lids can go in with cans in most areas.
Common mistakes
Drinking glasses, Pyrex, window glass and mirrors are a different kind of glass. Wrap them and put them in general waste or take them to the tip.
Does every council do this?
Most councils follow the answer above, but bins and sorting rules are set locally, and a few councils still do things differently. If your bin has a sticker, or your council sent a leaflet, follow that. Enter your postcode to go straight to your council's guidance.
