Omaha Glass Recycling Is Here!
The business community asked for it, so we figured out a way to start picking up glass for recycling!
Who's this service for?
Commercial facilities, such as offices, restaurants, schools, and churches. Unfortunately we don't service single-family residential at this time.
What's it cost?
Packages start at $65 a month for weekly pickup of a 64-gallon tote, plus $15 per additional tote.
Whatcha doing with the glass?
To start things off, we're processing the glass on-site at our Soil Dynamics farm for re-use in construction projects while we build the business model. We grind the glass down and mix with concrete (instead of sand) for use in concrete mixtures that are used in the underlayment layer.
How's it work?
At no charge, we provide you a 64-gallon tote that's lidded, leak proof, and on wheels. Totally up to the facility in how they collect the glass in-house, but when placed in our totes, we need the glass emptied of contents and placed directly into the tote without any plastic bags. Only glass bottles are accepted (aka no light bulbs or mirrors). Please remove any lids or corks.
With the tote placed outside or upon an agreed-upon location, we'll pick up and empty the contents on Wednesdays.
Let's do it! What's the next step?
