Recycling Stations

In Oslo, we have many recycling stations of different types. Read more about them here.

Big recycling stations

There are three big recycling stations. These are stations where you can come by car and deliver bigger amounts (3 cubic meters) of sorted waste types, such as broken furniture, waste from renovating your home (tiles, pipes and more), wood, hazardous waste, big appliances such as washing machines, garden waste (max. four waste sacks of garden waste at Smestad), and much more.

You can also deliver functional items to the our reuse sections: furniture, lamps, sporting goods, books, and much more.

The stations are open Monday - Saturday. More information and opening hours (only in Norwegian):

Medium recycling stations

At the two medium sized stations, you can also come by car, but you can deliver smaller amounts (1 cubic meter) of sorted waste types. These include many of the same types as at the biggest stations, such as garden waste, but not all of them.

You can also deliver functional items to our reuse section: furniture, lamps, sporting goods, books, and much more.

The two stations are open Monday - Saturday. More information and opening hours (only in Norwegian):

Mini recycling stations

There are nine mini recycling stations. They are store-like stations, indoors and often located in central areas of Oslo. They are primarily for pedestrians or cyclists. You can deliver small amounts equal to what you can carry with you, limited up to two waste sacks (max. 200 litres each).

Typical waste you can deliver here is cardboard, plastic waste, small entities of wood and metal waste, electronic waste, batteries, and more.

You can both deliver and take away functional items from the reuse sections at each station: small electronic items, cups, plates, interior items, books, and other small items.

The stations are open Monday – Friday. More information and opening hours (only in Norwegian):

Mobile mini recycling stations

We also have so-called mobile stations, which are containers that are moved around to the same stops at the same time every week. They stop for 1,5 – 3 hours per stop. There are three different containers that each have an own route.

They are primarily for pedestrians or cyclists. You can deliver small amounts equal to what you can carry with you, limited up to two waste sacks (max. 200 litres each).

Typical waste you can deliver here is cardboard, plastic waste, small entities of wood and metal waste, electronic waste, batteries, and more. The mobile stations don't have reuse sections.

The stations are open Monday – Thursday. More information and opening hours (only in Norwegian):
