I’m looking for a glass bottle collection point on HK Island. I called the number on your website and was told to call another number. I called the second number and the recipient cut the line.
Help please
Sorry for overlooking your message. Please call 9642 1896.
I know there is one at the Refuse Collection Point on Luard Road on Thursdays and Saturdays.
Any glass collection point in Wanchai? Thanks April for your efforts.
Yes, it is at Luard Rd Refuse Collection Point.

Hi April,
Im looking to get involved with the organization if possible.
I am a digital marketer but I can also help to collect glass.
Looking forward to talk to you!
Happy Chinese New Year!
Would we have a chat. Please call me at 9642 1896.

I notice you do not have any glass collection points in Lantau. There are several high rise buildings here and many tourists come here too. Could glass be collected here near the Citygate outlets? Even if its once a month?
Glass Recycling in Tung Chung : There are bins put by the Environmental Campaign Committee outside Block 3 and 6 in Tung Chung Crescent
where can we recycle glass in Sai Kung? we have a lot of environmentally minded people but no collection point to my knowledge?
Regarding Sheung Wan glass recycling location; pleaase update as there are several different elevators within the building that lead to completely different areas:
11/F, Sheung Wan Municipal Service Building, 345 Queen’s Road Central
NOTE: It is located INSIDE the “ELDERLY CARE CENTER”.
Thanks for your advice. We have added the hint as you suggested.
