The Reuse Route: Our Eco Pick-up Service
Available Now
Our Reuse Route is the heart of Second Pour’s mission: giving wine bottles a true second life.
Using smaller, more fuel-efficient box trucks, we collect glass bottles by the case, intact, preserving them for reuse in creative projects and new products—from art and lighting to building materials and beyond.

Why this route works
Lower emissions: Smaller trucks mean better fuel efficiency and a lighter environmental footprint
Greater reach: We can serve wineries that are farther from traditional recycling routes
Ideal for low-to-moderate volume: Perfect for boutique wineries or those without space to palletize glass or store additional large dumpsters
True reuse: Bottles stay whole, opening the door to upcycling and local reuse opportunities
This route is especially well-suited for wineries that value reuse and a lower emissions solution.
The Recycling Route: Large-Scale Commercial Service
(waitlist only)
For larger wineries producing high volumes of glass, we’re developing a traditional recycling route using full-size recycling trucks.
These trucks are designed to handle significant volume efficiently, making them the right choice when storing bottles by the case or pallet isn’t practical.

Why this route makes sense
Built for scale: Ideal for large production wineries with high bottle turnover
Operational efficiency: Reduces the need for on-site glass storage and manual handling
Targeted use: Because these trucks are less fuel-efficient, we reserve them for locations where volume justifies the footprint
While this route focuses on recycling rather than reuse, it still diverts substantial amounts of glass from landfills—supporting the broader sustainability goals of the Hill Country wine community.
Choosing the right route depends on a few simple factors:
Your average glass volume
Available storage space
Distance from existing recycling infrastructure
Your sustainability and reuse goals
We’re here to help you decide. Whether you’re a small vineyard producing limited runs or one of the region’s largest wineries, Second Pour will match you with the route that makes the most environmental and operational sense.
Let’s find the right fit for your winery—and give every bottle a second pour. 🍷🌱
