Basic information about the price list

The price list includes information about

  • the properties’ waste management service fees, size of the waste containers and collection frequencies;
  • fees for emptying septic tanks and closed tanks;
  • prices of waste delivered to the Sortti Stations for private and corporate customers as well as renting a trailer for waste transport. The price list for Sortti station and Sortti Mini Station reception fees for private customers is used for household customers and the price list for Sortti station reception fees for corporate and community customers is used for other customers.
  • the Sortti pick-up service for large items and its prices;
  • treatment fees of waste received at the Ämmässuo eco-industrial centre; and
  • fees for hazardous waste.

HSY calculates the prices shown on both the price list and the invoices free of tax using four decimal places. The prices shown on the price list including value-added tax are rounded to two decimal places according to common rounding rules.

The prices will enter into force on 1 January 2024.

The waste fees include all costs of organising and implementing waste management in accordance with the Waste Act, consisting of the collection, transport and treatment of waste as well as information provision, advice and administration. The waste fee is also used to cover the decommissioning and after-care of landfills as well as the long-term investments related to the construction of the infrastructure needed to fulfil the waste management obligation.

Tips:

How much will it cost if you take your waste load to a Sortti Station? You can enter the details of the waste you are taking to a Sortti Station in our eSortti.fi web service. You will be informed about the costs and you can also pay the invoice in advance, meaning that your visit to the station will be quicker.

How should waste management be arranged? The waste management regulations provide information on the types of waste collected separately.
