Montrose is on Dunc’s rounds, but not every street in a town is, the check is the only way to be sure.

Checked 12 October 2026 against Angus Council, who are the ones who can change it. Worth a look before you set off.
Or leave it at the door
The tip is free, and it opens every day. If that suits you and you do not mind loading the car, use it. Plenty of people do.
What catches people out is the rest of it: vans, pick-ups and trailers have to book a slot first. Glass is the heaviest thing in the recycling and the one that breaks, and you are the one carrying it to the car and out of it again.
It is only 18 minutes in the car, there and back. Do that as often as we come and it is 3.9 hours a year of driving, and the driving is the easy part. The loading, the queue at the gate and the unloading all sit on top of it.
Dunc comes every 4 weeks for £5.00 a collection. Box out by 7am, no slot to book. It goes to Sibelco Green Solutions to be recycled, same as it would from the tip.
No trips to the bottle bank
Glass is heavy, it is bulky and it breaks. Leave it at the door and let Dunc carry it.
£5.00 a collection
One box, every 4 weeks. No contract, stop when you like.
Actually recycled
Licensed waste carrier WCR/R/1197147. It goes to Sibelco Green Solutions to be recycled, not quietly into landfill.
What Dunc takes in Montrose
Bottles and jars of any colour: wine, beer, spirits, sauces, jam. Perfume bottles and toiletries too. Rinse anything that held food.
Mirrors, Pyrex, drinking glasses and light bulbs cannot be recycled and belong in general waste.
When he comes
Every four weeks, the same day each time, and we text and email you the night before so you are not trying to remember. Box out by 7am, wherever you tell him to look.
Montrose keeps it glassy!
