Tiers to Fit Your Needs

We accept all glass food, beverage, and cosmetic containers! Glass dishware like Pyrex and drinking glasses are not accepted due to their different melting point. All glass should be clean with lids removed. Labels can stay on.

It is ultimately transported to Owens-Illinois in Kalama, WA where the glass is remade into new bottles, glass containers or construction materials like insulation.

BIG Recyclers is a 100% volunteer organization. Your membership tipping fee defrays the costs of transporting the glass you drop off in Walla Walla to an aggregation site in Pasco, WA and then to Owens-Illinois in Kalama, WA where it will be recycled.

It is super easy and you never have to leave your car! When you drive up, we'll ask if you have a membership or not. Then we unload, weigh and dump your glass. If your membership is current, just give us your name and we will record the weight under your account. If you don't have a membership, you can either pay via Venmo, cash or check.

On average, those who sign up for a membership save money. It also makes your drop-off experience even easier and supports BIG Recyclers in continuing to provide this service.

We appreciate that you use something sturdy like a wine case box, plastic bin or old laundry basket. We'll recycle the cardboard for you! We ask that you not use wet cardboard boxes or plastic bags as glass often spills and breaks during our busy drop-offs.
