Order Glass Gravel from Big Blue, the City’s New Glass Recycling Machine!
The City of Flagler Beach’s new glass recycling machine, “Big Blue,” is hard at work. May 4th was the first citywide glass recycling pick-up, and it produced about six tons of glass. We are so proud of our community’s recycling efforts. The City is excited to sell 25 pound bags of the glass gravel that Big Blue creates for $35.00 plus tax. Flagler Beach residents may place their orders at glass@cityofflaglerbeach.com.
Let’s keep our garbage/recycle can collectors safe! Please consider purchasing a tipper garbage and /or recycle cart for $77.04 each (includes tax and personally delivered) by calling 386.517.2000, Option 1. These tough, stable and durable carts will last for years and help our Sanitation Department. Let’s advocate for better health and safety by purchasing a closed lidded can today.
The gray cart is for recycling, and the brown cart is for garbage. The Sanitation Department still offers small blue recycle bins at no cost.
