Recycling centres in Gothenburg

Gästrike Återvinnare is a municipal association for Gävle, Sandviken, Älvkarleby, Ockelbo and Hofors, established in 2001. Of the association's eleven recycling centres, three are located in Gävle municipality. As a private person, the visits are included in the waste tax base fee. At the entrance, sensors read the car's registration plate. If you come with a light truck registered to a company, the visit costs 360 kronor excluding VAT; if you only have private waste, you pre-register the visit and come on weekdays 17 to 19 or on the weekend. The staff will help you with sorting, but otherwise it's self-service. Gästrike Återvinnare also rents out containers to private individuals, covered ones at 12 and 26 cubic meters and open ones at 10, 22 and 35 cubic meters. The price is not listed on the page.

What do I do with the things that are not coming with me?

Our advice is to sort out what you are not taking with you when you start packing, and take it to a recycling centre before moving day. Then the removal company only carries and drives what is coming along, and the working time gets shorter.
