Slippurinn Akureyri og Íslenska Gámafélagið (ÍGF) hafa gert með sér samning um heildstæða sorphirðuþjónustu með skýra áherslu á flokkun og aukna endurvinnslu. ÍGF mun annast sorphirðu hjá fyrirtækinu og beita lausnum sem draga úr umhverfisáhrifum starfseminnar og stuðla að sjálfbærni í rekstri. Innleiðing nýs kerfis hefst eftir sumarleyfi starfsfólks, en stefnt er að fullri útfærslu í haust. Með betri flokkun og meðhöndlun úrgangs má bæði auka nýtingu hráefna, draga úr orkunotkun og minnka mengun. Á sama tíma skapast aukin hagkvæmni þar sem förgunarkostnaður fer hækkandi.
