Residents of Hafnarfjörður are asked to place garden waste at the kerbside at the end of the designated collection days for each neighbourhood. Please note that all garden waste must be in bags, and bear in mind that reasonably weighted bags make the collection process easier for our staff. Residents are encouraged to make use of this service provided by the council.

Once the spring clean is over, owners and plot holders must take their garden waste to Sörpu themselves – information on opening hours can be found on the Sörpu website: www.sorpa.is It is also ideal to collect garden waste over the summer in a compost heap in a convenient place in the garden and use it for composting.
