Staff from the City of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur's Service Centre will be out and about to collect the garden waste on the following days:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>9 May \u2013 North, West, Hraun and Centre<\/li>\n<li>14 May \u2013 Setberg, Kinnar and Hvammar<\/li>\n<li>22 May \u2013 \u00c1sland, Vellir and Holtin<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/media\/frettamyndir\/hreinsunardagar-2018-verkaaetlun.pdf\/\">See attached map<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Residents are encouraged to have their garden waste placed outside their property boundary for the designated collection days for each respective neighbourhood. Garden waste will not be collected in those neighbourhoods after the specified day has passed.<\/p>\n<p>Please note that all garden waste must be in bags, and bear in mind that reasonably weighted bags (maximum 20 kg) make the clean-up easier for our staff. Large quantities of garden waste from major on-site projects, such as the felling of large trees, will not be collected. The service is intended for minimal pruning of trees and shrubs, for example, to ensure that vegetation does not obstruct traffic or visibility on footpaths and pavements.<\/p>\n<p>Residents are encouraged to make use of this council service because after the spring clean-up of plots ends, plot holders themselves must take garden waste to  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sorpa.is\/thjonusta\/starfsstodvar\/endurvinnslustodvar\">SORPA recycling centres<\/a>. 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.<\/p>\n<p>Please note that collection does not apply to loose soil, timber, metals and waste materials.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00cdb\u00faar eru hvattir til a\u00f0 hreinsa l\u00f3\u00f0ir s\u00ednar og setja gar\u00f0a\u00fargang \u00fat fyrir l\u00f3\u00f0am\u00f6rk \u00ed h\u00e6filega \u00feunga poka og binda greinaafklippur \u00ed knippi n\u00fa \u00ed byrjun ma\u00ed.
