If you break a sheet of glass

[Danbert Nocurry]

Do you put it in the normal bin, the bottles/cans bin......or do you just sling it over next doors fence?

Probably not in the cans Should be okay in the bottles. Most break when you throw them in as hard as you can to get that, oh so satisfying, sound

Not sure you can recycle it in the home bin...it's a danger to the people collecting. I'd wrap it in newspaper, take it to the bottle bank and drop it in in pieces.

Good question Danbert - personally i'd put it in the neighbour's bin

and


if his cat carries on shitting in my garden, it'd go through his bloody letter box

Unless it's old glass I don't think it's recyclable. sorry, put it in the skip down the road when it's dark

Just drop it at your local window or glazing firms
They will take it in as they get cah for there glass and will def let you chuck it in there skip

So after all this useful advice, which one did you go for Danbert?

Well Noel......I have since discovered the following

green bin = garden waste
beige bin = cardboard/paper
purple bin = bottles and tins
grey bin = general.

therefore the glass went in my purple one.

I didn't forget to fill out a risk assessment/method statement before handling the glass, plus i made sure that the relevant signs were on display informing others of the broken glass.

And Noel if you are reading this reply i must point out that i require you to wear a hard hat
