Shattered
Overwhelming success or startup failure? I didn't have time to make a determination as an avalanche of glass threatened to consume me. I finally got around to bringing my empties to a Ripple Glass recycling bin yesterday. When I attempted to open it, bottles from the overflowing container rained down on me. Conscientious consumers have done their part. Here's hoping that Ripple Glass fulfills their end of the bargain by regularly emptying their bins.

At Ripple Glass, we're working hard with our hosts to empty the bins as soon as they're full. Thank you for your patience as we continue to improve our system.
The holiday weekend was busy (and people used a lot of glass!). Thank you to everyone who helped fill the bins!

I was glad I made an early Thanksgiving Day drop-off run because we replenished our stores pretty significantly over the weekend.

It would be cool if we could text or Tweet Ripple when we noticed a container was full. Then they wouldn't have to monitor all of them as much.

I should have known those were your bottles of ripple in the Ripple bin, UL.
Scary drivers around there for real, Mike T.
It's a habit, AJ. And I'm glad that Ripple gives us this opportunity.
That's a good idea, DLC. And since they're listening, allow me to up the ante. How about this, Ripple? Occasionally award helpful tipsters with $10 gift cards from partners like Boulevard Beer and UMB? It'd generate additional enthusiasm as it helps you be more efficient.
