Construction Recycling

I'm doing a big new year's clean and have alot of old glass and ceramic coffee mugs I want to throw away. I'm not crafty and don't want to upcycle them into flower pots :-) -- I want them out of the house, but feel bad about putting them in the garbage. Does anyone know of any companies that handle construction and demolition debris that accept ceramics/glass for crushing and reuse for things like roadbed material or landscaping?

I just donate that kind of thing to a thrift shop myself or you could offer it up in a buy nothing group, that’s where people that do crafty stuff tend to get them it seems.

I used to take things to Goodwill--that's where I furnished and got kitchen stuff for my first apartments back in the 90s, but I wasn't sure people still did that, with all the cheap stuff at Target and Walmart. There's just so much junk in the world.
