City Glass Recycling Event Scheduled

The City of Corpus Christi Solid Waste Operations and the Clean City Committee will sponsor a glass recycling drop-off location. The event will take place Saturday, September 12th from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at the Del Mar College Testing Center, located at 3013 Ayers behind Church’s Chicken. Crews will set up in the parking lot.

Glass is one of the few materials that can be recycled indefinitely without losing strength, purity or quality. During the recycling event, all colors of clean glass and any type of glass will be accepted from participating citizens. Citizens are asked to keep the colors of their glass separated for processing.

Volunteer opportunities and community service hours are available for the event. Interested parties can register at www.cbvc.org. Volunteers should wear closed toe shoes, hats and sunscreen.
