If the glass items are in reusable condition, consider donation. Otherwise, dispose of plate glass (e.g., window glass), and other non-food and beverage container glass items in the garbage.
If you have broken glass shards (broken mirrors, picture frame glass, etc.), there is no need to prepare the sharp shards before placing them in your garbage cart. Garbage is not sorted and the broken glass is landfilled without being handled by hauling company or disposal site staff.
