Important Notes

Collection schedules and sorting rules may change. Please check the official website for the latest information.

  • A bag of ignitable hazardous items cannot be put out on its own (it is collected together with the non-burnable garbage bag)
  • Release the gas outdoors in a well-ventilated place away from fire by pressing down the operating lever and holding it down with a rubber band or tape; if it does not light when you try to ignite it, the gas has been released
  • Do not put out a large amount at once; divide it over several collection days and put out small amounts
