From PKC Waste Services Team:
From today glass recycling will become easier across Perth and Kinross. Previously we have asked everyone to separate glass by colour before recycling, This is no longer necessary as all mini glass recycling points and glass bells will now accept any colour of glass.
We will be updating stickers on these bins soon.
This change is happening due to less space being available for the segregation of glass colours at our depot.
This, however, will not affect recycling rates as Sibelco- our glass re-processor, utilises infrared sensors and air technology to detect glass colours once the glass arrives at the sorting facility, sorting it into colour types to ensure it can be recycled.
Please remember to remove lids and rinse before recycling!
