Can anyone advise how we are supposed to deal with old glasses (the drinking kind I mean). Should we put them in the green bin. I know they won't take broken glass. Thanks in advance.

I always stick big notes all over the box and bag which has broken glass in it, just in case...

If they are not broken or chipped take them to a charity shop or jumble trail/yard sale etc.If they are broken or chipped wrap them very carefully and put them into the residual waste collection. They tend to be made out of a different sort of glass from bottles which is likely to have a different melting point. Broken bottle glass can be carefully put into a bottle glass recycling bank or wrapped and carefully disposed of as per above.The A-Z on www.recylenow.com is very informative but I don't seem to be able to access it at the moment.
