ATTN NEW ORLEANS! TIME TO RECYCLE YOUR GLASS! NOLAWARE RECYCLES GLASS & MAKES ART WITH IT!

"A lot of New Orleanians will tell you that the glass is half empty when it comes to glass recycling in this city. The question that drives everyone to drink is always ‘when is glass recycling coming?!’ The answer is always that it’s either too expensive to haul, too costly, a liability issue, or too cheap to manufacture to make it work… Until now. There’s a new local startup called Nolaware that wants you to drink up and then bring them all of your clean and unbroken beer, liquor and wine bottles. Why? So that they can give them a new life as glassware and candles. Drop offs can be made at ::7701 COHN STREET:: in the Carrollton neighborhood and, if you own a restaurant or bar, they’ll even schedule a pickup to grab your glass. The folks at Nolaware like to say they’re recycling New Orleans one bottle at a time." -wwno.org

I can't promise that the person that picks up the phone on that number will know what on earth you're talking about, "recycle glass? wuh?" but, ask to speak to a manager & they will know :)
