Important Notes
Collection schedules and sorting rules may change. Please check the official website for the latest information.
- In Sayo Town, this sorting category is called "Special Waste" (tokushu gomi)
- You cannot put out the whole lighting fixture as special waste. The fixture is oversized garbage (if it can be taken apart: plastic shades are burnable garbage, metal fixtures with electrical parts are non-burnable garbage, and glass shades are landfill waste)
- Products containing mercury require special treatment. Be careful not to mix them with burnable garbage
