【Precautions for garbage separations that are easy to make a mistake. Shisei Dayori, August(2)】
〇Plastic packages that the stains do not
come off easily should be sorted into burnable garbage.
Plastic packages that do not remove the
stains even if you wash, for example, retort pouches and tubes of seasoning should be
categorized into burnable trash. Buckets and clothes hangers which do not have plastic
marks are sorted into burnable trash, too.
【Please follow the separation rules. Shisei Dayori, August(3)】
Collected resources are sorted by machines
or hand and recycled. If the rules are not obeyed and foreign bodies, for example,
needles or batteries are mixed, it will lead to workers’ injuries or fire of transportation
cars. Let’s follow the rules and realize a sustainable society.
▲Precautions for putting out garbage
◎Paper
Please tie it in a cross with string and
take it out. If you put out books, magazines, or paper boxes, you can put them in a paper
bag. Please take the handles from the bag if they are not made of paper. Do not put them
in a cardboard box, nor use adhesive tape.
◎Plastic packages
Please put them in a transparent garbage
bag to enable smooth separation. Do not put them in a smaller bag, and then a bigger
bag.
◎Empty bottles and cans
Empty bins and cans can be collected in the
same bag. Make sure to take the lids out, and rince the bins and cans. Do not put
cigarette butts or trach in the bins or cans.
