How to Recycle Your Glass at Drop-off Events

Glass must be clean with no caps, corks, or lids (labels are okay). We accept all colors of food-grade glass, but we cannot take Pyrex, windows, or lightbulbs. Please bring glass in sturdy containers, boxes, or bags. For safety reasons, please do not intentionally break glass before events.

The suggested donation is $1 per gallon of glass recycled. All proceeds support local public education programs and housing initiatives. 

Volunteer - We Need Your Help!

Volunteer help for these events is crucial. We regularly get over 500 vehicles dropping off glass per event. 

Volunteering at a Missoula glass recycling drop-off is a great way to support a local nonprofit, meet community members, and recycle your own glass without a suggested donation. Shifts are two hours each. Call or email us to volunteer at our next event.

Why Missoula Glass Drop-Off Events Matter

Glass is one of the most recyclable materials on earth — it can be remelted endlessly without losing quality. Every bottle you bring to a Missoula glass recycling drop-off gets crushed locally and shipped to Momentum Recycling in Salt Lake City, where it becomes new bottles and other glass products. By recycling your glass instead of sending it to the landfill, you’re helping keep Western Montana beautiful — and supporting local schools through our GiveBack Grant program.
