Why Glass Waste Recycling Matters

Glass is a valuable resource and glass waste, when recycled, reduces the strain on our natural resources, minimising the energy needed during the production process. Commercial glass recycling comes with a number of benefits:

Conserves resources: By recycling glass, raw materials like sand, soda ash and limestone (which are used in the manufacturing of new glass products) are conserved, which has a positive effect on the environment.

Saves energy: The production of glass from raw materials requires significant energy inputs. Recycling glass reduces this energy consumption, leading to lower carbon emissions and a smaller ecological footprint.

Reduces waste: Glass is inert and does not degrade over time. By recycling, we keep glass out of landfills, preventing unnecessary waste build-up.

Maximises recycling: Glass can be 100% recycled over and over again without ever losing quality. This makes responsible glass disposal and recycling incredibly worthwhile from both a financial and environmental standpoint.

What Our Clients Say

Simpler Recycling

On 31st March 2025 Simpler Recycling Laws came into effect. All businesses with 10 or more full time equivalent employees must segregate their waste streams at source. This is to allow for easier and more efficient recycling. Schools, hospitals and commercial enterprises must all comply with these updated laws and separate the following waste:

Plastic, glass, metal (cans, tins and foil), cartons & tetrapaks, paper and cardboard, and food waste.

Businesses with less than 10 employees are advised to separate any materials but will not be subject to the legislation until March 2027.

Fresh Start can ensure you are totally compliant with Simpler Recycling rules and regulations, supporting you with glass waste management and sustainability across your company. We have already won two prestigious awards for our work on Simpler Recycling, including an International Green Apple Award for our Simpler Recycling for Schools campaign.

Glass Recycling Process

At Fresh Start Waste Services, we’ve streamlined the glass recycling process to make it easy for our customers:

Containers: Our colour-coded wheeled bins make the disposal of glass waste fast and efficient.

Collection: We provide on-time collections all year round and ensure our bins are placed at strategic locations so it’s easy to drop off your glass waste and let us do the rest.

Sorting: Once collected, glass is sorted by colour to ensure purity for the recycling process.

Processing: The sorted glass is cleaned and processed to remove impurities, making it ready for recycling.

Recycling: Processed glass is then melted down and used to create new glass products, reducing the need for virgin materials.

Commercial Glass Recycling

Whatever sector you operate in, commercial glass recycling is for you. We work with small and large organisations across the North West, supporting them in their glass waste disposal efforts. We have extensive experience with industries that produce very high volumes of waste glass, such as:

Commercial glass recycling is a necessity whether you operate from an office or a construction site. We can supply you with separate bins that take the hassle out of knowing where to recycle glass.

What’s more, for businesses that also produce food waste, we can collect at the same time using our twin bodied vehicles. This allows a reduced carbon footprint, as one vehicle is divided into two sections to collect glass and food at the same time.
