HOW GLASS HOUND WORKS
Partner locations keep recycling like you already do—just using our totes. We don't want to put any extra work on you. We're a no-nonsense, reliable recycling partner that's consistent, on-time, and dependable with scheduled pickups whenever you need us.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Common questions from our bar partners
Do I still use my glass recycler?
Sure! You can use us both, or we can handle all your glass. Whatever works best for your bar is fine with us.
Does the glass need to be clean?
Ideally, clean glass helps our volunteers' workflow, but dirty is fine too. Don't stress about it!
What if a few bottles break while putting them in the bin?
Not a big deal! We're trained pros and can handle that. We don't want to put any extra burden on your bar staff.
