It appears they have outsourced it. An organic nursery, Garden Ville now sells what the city gets for about $25/truck load. No more free glass mulch for COA residents. 🙁

Thanks for the update on where to find glass mulch in the Austin area Scott. Even though it’s not free anymore, that’s still a great price. I’ll update my post with this new information you’ve provided…Rick

No luck in getting the recycling center on the phone. However, I did come across a website from a place called Garden-Ville. On their site, they indicated they get all of the City of Austin’s glass and recycle it themselves. They sell it to the public…higher price, of course, than the city was providing. Their site stated “You can get a cubic yard (about the size of a pickup bed) of it for $24.99, or a 40-lb bag for just $3.99. Don’t want to get your hands dirty? They also deliver.” http://wayoutwestaustin.com/glass-mulch-at-garden-ville/

I would also be interested in recycled glass mulch! Please let me know if you hear of anything!

I’m not sure why they stopped carrying the recycled glass mulch Anne. I’ll try to get more information on whether they will begin carrying it again and let you know…Rick
