GlassBag collects household glass bottles and jars from your doorstep so you can skip the bottle bank. Choose a plan, use a sturdy bag (Dunnes, Tesco, etc.) for your first collection, and we deliver your reusable GlassBag on collection day.
You choose a plan, place your order, and use a sturdy bag (Dunnes, Tesco, etc.) for your first collection. We collect the glass from your doorstep and deliver your reusable GlassBag on that same collection day.
Your collection day is based on your Eircode. You will see the date in your confirmation email, and we send text reminders before collection.
We collect glass bottles, glass jars, candle jars and carefully placed broken bottle or jar glass. Pyrex, window glass, mirrors, drinking glasses, light bulbs and ceramics are not accepted.
Use the pricing page for plan options and the collection calendar for route timing and upcoming collection dates.
Choose the annual, monthly or once-off plan that suits your home. Annual is the best value, monthly is flexible, and once-off is useful after a party, move or busy period.
Once you've decided, place your order and fill in your address details. Please include your Eircode and mobile number — we need these for scheduling your collection.
Use any container or bag you already have to store your glass until your first collection. Rinse bottles and jars where possible; labels and lids can stay on.
To keep waste to a minimum and reduce time on the road, we'll deliver your sturdy reusable GlassBag on the day of your first collection.
Each area we service is assigned a collection day based on your Eircode. You'll find your collection day in your confirmation email, and you'll get text reminders before collection.
You can also check the collection calendar to find your area's day. If you can't find your Eircode, reach out at info@glassbag.ie.
Leave your glass outside in a visible spot before collection time. You do not need to be home.
We collect the glass, send it for recycling, and leave your reusable bag back with you so you can start filling it again.

Excellent service. Extremely reliable, leaves no mess, economical, responsive and well worth every cent ! Will continue to use this service - we are customers for a few years now and never had any issue; even when I forgot to leave out my bag ! Saves bringing (or forgetting to bring) glass to the bottle banks.... they even remind you when they are coming and then send another reminder that they are near; so convenient and you never forget to recycle ! You should really give it a try.
I've been a client of Glassbag circa 5+years. They are authentic, sound individuals, David, Mark and team, providing a dependable, professional and punctual service at a very-reasonable price, with a genuine environmentally-responsible focus & ethos. I recommend Glassbag wholeheartedly.
Using that service for years now, always very good. Very handy, you don't have to go to the bottle bank and sort it out, specially if you are color blind😅
Great service, reasonably priced. Appreciate the text and email reminders leading up to the collection time!
A really great value for money service to free up your weekends from the recycling runs. Great communication and efficient service from the team. Highly recommended.
