Garbage Rules and Etiquette

In Japan, the rules for putting out garbage differ depending on the area. Make sure to put out your garbage on the designated day, at the designated location, and using the specified garbage bags. Recycling and sorting your garbage is often required, so it is important to check the rules in your area in advance. In addition, illegal dumping is prohibited by law. If illegal dumping is discovered, you may be fined, so please be careful. --- Source: Immigration Services Agency of Japan "Life and Work Guidebook" 第8版 https://www.moj.go.jp/isa/support/portal/guidebook_all.html This article was reorganized by ＳＩＡデジタルテクノロジー株式会社 based on the above source. ※This language version is a machine translation from the Japanese version (ＳＩＡデジタルテクノロジー株式会社).
