Trash
Wrap it carefully. Do not throw it down the chute: place it carefully in a general waste bin or bring it to your estate waste management area. Be considerate of the safety of workers.
Any sheet glass, including household waste window glass is not recyclable in blue bins - meaning that unless you are a company and have large volumes of glass to recycle, you can't recycle it.

Info & Insights
There are many types of flat glass: float, safety, tinted, tempered, laminated, reinforced... the list goes on. They cannot all be recycled together and knowing which is which is complicated. Because of this, glass recyclers are selective about which window glass aka flat glass they will take.
Likewise, flat glass used in things like fish tanks, glass boxes, & stained glass should be treated the same: they are not recyclable.
