Why It Matters

Because glass shouldn't be wasted—and neither should opportunity.

In Southeast Alabama, there’s no practical way to recycle glass. That means bottles, jars, and containers that could be repurposed are tossed into the trash—adding to landfills, littering our streets, and missing their potential.

But this isn’t just about recycling.
It’s about creating a system that:

  • Reduces waste and protects our local environment

  • Empowers people and businesses to take part in real, visible change

  • Provides resources like sandbags for storm relief or sustainable materials for community projects

  • And proves that even in small towns, innovation and impact can start at the curb

We’re not just picking up glass.
We’re building a smarter, local solution—one that transforms what’s thrown away into something that gives back.
