Glass

One of Christy's lifelong goals has been to do something about the lack of glass recycling activity in Utah, and we have talked about it on and off for about the last twenty years.  And I've been thinking about ways to expand our business to make it more profitable and interesting during the winter months, and throughout the whole year, really.

So I'm wondering if we could somehow make a glass service work.  "See a need, fill a need," right?  We'd have to provide affordable bins for our customers, and set up a pickup schedule and route.  We already have trucks and staging space.  We would get most of our income from the recycler  (in Wyoming?), and I imagine it wouldn't be much.  But with enough volume, over time, maybe we could pull it off.

Did you ever see that Seinfeld episode where Newman and Kramer try to take recyclable bottles to Michigan in a mail truck?
