Hello, how can we help?

Christmas and New Year's are typically busy for Reykjavík City waste collection. Recycling drop-offs see heavy use during this season. To ensure smooth operations, sort waste carefully and use bin space efficiently. Special containers for fireworks debris will be available at ten locations citywide after New Year's.

A large part of Kvosin, Laugavegur and nearby streets will close to vehicle traffic on Mass of St. Thorlac, December 23. There will also be closures in the city center on New Year's Eve, Dec. 31.

Reykjavík City service fees are generally expected to rise by an average of 3.5% at the turn of the year.

The City Council approved a new policy for the Intercultural City of Reykjavík 2026-2030 this week. This is the first policy of its kind that defines Reykjavík as an Intercultural City.
