Can glass go in with other recycling?

I live in a co-op building in Capitol Hill and a few months ago (maybe longer) our glass bin disappeared from outside. The mixed recycling dumpster clearly states no glass, but there is no other container for it.

    Yep. As of March 30, 2009 (more than a year ago!) glass bottles and jars started going in the same container as all the other recyclables.

    Add it right in with the paper, cans, etc. It is sorted out at the recycling facility. Research shows that more people recycle if it ismore convenient, i.e. in one container.
