Glassy project – Missoula Federal Credit Union seeks recyclables to help construct new building

Through this weekend only, Missoula Federal Credit Union https://secure.missoulafcu.org/ is asking people to donate any empty glass containers they may have lying around to help build its newest branch, which will be constructed almost entirely of renewable, recycled and locally made products.

While clean, de-labeled containers are easier to pulverize, the credit union isn’t about to be picky. It will need to collect an estimated 300 to 400 tons of pulverized glass.

“We will take anything and everything we can get for glass,” said the credit union’s marketing director, Joni Walker. “It’s going to be really hard for us to get too much.”
