How to dispose of business waste

All garbage generated from business establishments (offices, stores, etc.) is "business waste."
Business-related waste must be processed and disposed of at the responsibility of the business, but the city will collect it for a fee only if it is a small amount that cannot be disposed of by oneself or by contracting with a contractor.

The city only collects general waste.
General waste refers to "paper, lunch boxes, tea leaves, juice cans, bottles, plastic bottles, slips, newspapers, magazines, etc."
Furniture and electrical appliances used in offices cannot be collected.

Industrial waste refers to things that are emitted as a result of business activities (waste materials, waste oil, waste plastics, etc.).
For industrial waste, please ask an industrial waste collection and transportation company.

Please dispose of it using one of the following methods (1) to (3).

(1) Dispose of the waste yourself at your workplace

This refers to cases in which the waste is self-processed at a treatment plant owned by the business.

(2) Request collection to the city

If it is general waste and it weighs less than 15 kg (3 45 liter bags) at a time, you can request the city to collect it.
Garbage must be put out on the same day as household garbage (please put out by 8 a.m. on the same day. You cannot specify a specific time.)

Note 1: Please purchase collection bags designated by the city for burnable garbage, non-burnable garbage, and plastic garbage.
Business-designated collection bags: for combustibles (light blue): 5-pack 1,450 yen Business-designated collection bags: for non-combustibles (brown): 5-pack 1,450 yen Business-designated collection bags: for plastics (orange): 5-pack 725 yen
Note 2: Recyclable waste can be disposed of free of charge only if it was used in the office.
Note 3: Furniture, electrical appliances, and bulky waste items cannot be collected, even if they were used in the office. Please ask a company to collect them.

(3) Request a collection and transportation company

This is a method in which each business enters into a direct contract with a collection and transportation company approved by the city if the waste cannot be collected by the city.
This applies to the following establishments:
In this case, the city's designated collection bags are not required.

• Business establishments where the amount of garbage exceeds 15 kg (3 bags of 45 liters) at a time
• Businesses that generate a small amount of trash but whose collection schedule and time do not match the city's schedule

Note 1: Please confirm the collection date and fees with the collection/transportation company before signing a contract directly with them.
Note 2: Collection of general waste in Inagi City is limited to licensed businesses by law. You cannot request collection to other companies.
