Contamination

It is important that no other waste, such as paper plastic or timber finds its way into the glass waste stream. It is of critical importance that no metal or dirt/concrete is present. In the case of a contaminated load we will work to recover as much as possible and minimise the amount sent to landfill and additional charges being incurred.
