Receiving and sorting plant,
Gufunesvegi, 112, Reykjavík
Tel. 520 2240

Terms and conditions

At the receiving and sorting plant of SORPA, waste is processed and sent for recycling or disposal.

Waste must be sorted, and must be free of foreign or polluting material. Good quality sorting, leads to better utilisation of raw materials and contributes to an improved environment. It is also more economical for the customer provided that the weight of each waste category is examined specifically. Customers should note that unsorted waste carries the highest fee!

Customers pay for waste according to weight (ISK/kg) according to the price list.

Price list

Customers who regularly do business with SORPA are advised that it is possible to apply for a business card.

The minimum fee for payable waste in the receiving and sorting plant at Gufunes is ISK 579,00 including VAT.

Sunday surcharge

A special surcharge fee, ISK 4552,17 , is levied on Sundays on all deliveries irrespective of the waste category delivered.

Special services for waste holders

Recycling material can be baled for delivery onto transport vehicles. The minimum volume is 10 tonnes and the fee per kg is ISK 11,61.

Service process

The customer goes to the weigh-in at the receiving and sorting plant of SORPA at Gufunes. The weigh-in gate opens automatically for customers with a business card; others receive a temporary card at the weigh-in hatch.
The customer goes to door No. 3, where a SORPA employee accepts the business card.
Customers are under obligation to provide information on the origin and nature of the waste, and the employee in the receiving and sorting plant confirms the registration.
The customer places the waste on either scale on the way out. The gate opens automatically after scanning the business card. Customers with temporary business cards place waste on the scales nearest the weigh-in house and finalise the process.
