At the recycling station, you can pick up a red box, free of charge, for storing hazardous waste. The box is childproof. There is an accompanying brochure about hazardous waste. You may empty the box, free of charge at the recycling station. See page 9. Empty glass bottles, food jars and metallic packaging are deposited in the glass containers. These are placed in various locations in all the municipalities. We empty about 2,500 sludge/septic tanks per year. The tanks are emptied once every other year for all inhabited dwellings. For secondary residences, the tanks are emptied every fourth year. Learn more on page 18. We offer three different subscriptions for cabin/ holiday home renovation services – the blue bag type!

We distribute stands containing rolls of green, red and blue bags to the food markets that wish to make them available to their customers. Making green, red and blue bags available in food shops facilitates waste-sorting. Everyone has to buy food, and the food shops have late opening hours. This way you can get the roll of bags that you need without having to wait two weeks for the next waste collection. Each roll contains 40 bags, so one roll will last many weeks. This arrangement is here to stay – you do not need to stockpile bags at home. The shop will also sell white bags for general refuse disposal at NOK 30 per roll (40 bags). You will find free sorting bags in the following shops: Andøy Lødingen Bunnpris Andenes Coop Prix Lødingen Coop Marked Dverberg Matkroken Vestbygd Coop Prix, Andenes Nærbutikken Vågehamn Joker Risøyhamn Rema 1000 Lødingen Matkroken Åse Spar Lødingen Rema 1000, Andenes Snarkjøp Nordmela Sortland Landhandleri & kafé Bunnpris & Gourmet Sortland Coop Extra Sortland Bø Coop Mega Sortland Coop Prix Straume Coop Prix Strand Joker Bø, Eidet Joker Eidsfjord Spar Bø i Vesterålen, Vinje Kiwi Lykkentreff, Sortland Rema 1000 Sortland (Nord) Hadsel Rema 1000 Sjøgata, Sortland Coop Prix Melbu Coop Prix Stokmarknes Øksnes Joker Melbu Bunnpris Myre Rema 1000 Melbu Coop Prix Myre Rema 1000 Stokmarknes Matkroken Alsvåg Spar Stokmarknes Rema 1000 Myre This list was prepared 19 Apr 2018.
