How to Use the Recyclables Collection Plazas
Asahi Town has set up Recyclables Collection Plazas in three locations.
Please obey the rules for their use.

Recyclables Collection Plazas are not Trash Stations.
Recently, there have been incidents of items other than recyclables (kitchen waste andnon-recyclable metal and glass items) and recyclables that have not been washed beingbrought into the Plazas.
Let s all try hard to recycle by obeying the rules for trash separation and using the Recyclables
Collection Plazas correctly.

○ Place trash in designated trash bags.

Always place your trash in the trash bags designated by the Town Oﬃce. Place burnable
trash in the designated trash bags labeled もやせるごみ (Burnable Trash) in blue andsoft and hard plastic, metal and oversized trash in the designated trash bags labeled
もやせないごみ (Non-burnable Trash) in red. If an item will not ﬁt in a designated trashbag, attach a designated trash ticket.
*Designated trash bags and trash tickets can be purchased at supermarkets, homecenters, convenience stores, and other locations in Asahi Town.

○ Observe collection days.

Check the Trash Collection Calendar to ensure you place the correct trash out on thecorrect day.

○ Separate trash properly.

Trash that violates the rules will not be collected and a violation sticker will be attached.
Please obey the rules and place the trash out again correctly.
For items that must not be placed out in the Trash Stations (recyclable home appliancessuch as televisions, refrigerators, washing machines, clothes dryers, and air-conditioners,
mattresses with springs inside, ﬁre extinguishers, dehumidiﬁers that use CFCs, etc.), takethem to a specialist trash collection operator yourself to have them disposed of properly.
