Help Us Recycle Glass for Glacier National Park
As the new, official glass recyclers of Glacier National Park, Recycling Works needs your help in growing to take on the half million pounds of glass we expect to receive from Glacier annually. We need a Bobcat Front-Loader that's powerful enough to manage all this glass.
What We Need, & Why We’re Doing This
At our current capacity, we’re simply unable to take on this much new glass. Our equipment cannot store, transfer, and process an additional 500,000 pounds of glass – on top of the 500,000 pounds we already collect annually around Missoula.
In order to handle this surge in glass, we’re looking to purchase a new Bobcat Skid-Steer Front-Loader.
All funds from this fundraiser will go towards the down payment of $8,000 on this Bobcat – an essential component in allowing us to effectively handle all of Glacier’s glass.
Here's the Bobcat we need!
