Sort recyclables and garbage from your household and business

If your house and your business are at the same location, be sure to attach prepaid disposal tickets to the recyclables and garbage from your business. Business recyclables and garbage without attached prepaid disposal tickets or household recyclables and garbage containing business waste will not be collected.

Information about business waste recycling system

“ecocha!” is a business waste recycling system. Use “echocha” to recycle at lower costs than garbage disposal.

【Contact】

Ｒ Federation Sumida Recycle Association　☎03-3613-6481

Please note when you contract with licensed private waste disposal companies.

Wastes are classified into “industrial waste” and “general waste” according to the law. Please note that these classification methods are different from the classification methods for household waste.

What are industrial wastes?　 Wastes derived from business activities can be classified into 20 categories; 13 of the 20 categories

include waste products from activities such as combustion residue, mud, waste oil, waste acid, waste alkali, waste plastic, and the remaining 7 categories of waste are derived from other designated business activities.

　 Refer to “The law for waste disposal and sanitation” or contact Tokyo Department of Environment for more details.

What are general wastes?　 Wastes other than industrial wastes.　 General wastes are classified into “household wastes” and ‘business general wastes.” “Household wastes”

are disposed by public organizations but “business general wastes” must be disposed by the businesses’ own disposal system or contract with a waste disposal company.

You must contract a private waste disposal company with licenses for waste collection and waste delivery. If you contract companies who do not have licenses, you may be also accused of the legal violation. Please verify the contractors’ license status before contracting them for waste disposal jobs.Responsibility of waste products are under the business owner until final disposal of waste but not limited to the moment when wastes are picked up by the city or private waste disposal company at the waste collection site.

Do you know the final destination of garbage?After burning or compacting garbage from the Tokyo 23 cities, it is sent to “Outer Central Breakwater Landfill Site” and “Shinkaimen Disposal Site” for use in land reclamation. The Shinkaimen Disposal Site is the last disposal site that can be made in the Tokyo Bay. To use disposal sites as long as possible, we need to reduce garbage even further. To reduce garbage, our role is to sorting recyclables and garbage correctly.

Remember the 3Rs!!Do you know what the "3Rs" is? “3Rs” is the keyword for cutting down garbage and creating an eco-friendly town. Sumida City is promoting awareness of the "3Rs" to encourage an eco-friendly recycling society. You may think that the 3Rs are difficult to remember or you do not know what you should do to achieve the 3Rs. But it's easy. There are many ways to achieve the 3Rs! Learn what the "3Rs" are and how you can achieve them!

1. 　　　　　Reduce garbage volume

The most important thing is to reduce garbage volume. In other words, do not generate excess garbage. Keep in mind regularly the life style to reduce garbage and to do not generate garbage. When you go to shopping or are at meal time, act while thinking “This may increase garbage.” You may be able to reduce garbage even just a little.

2. 　　　　　Reuse resources

Before throwing away unnecessary or broken items as garbage, think about whether they can be used for other purposes or if any other persons may want them. Remember, Japanese traditional culture “Mottainai (wasteful)” and contrive the way to reuse them.

Recycling paperAbout one third of burnable garbage from households in Sumida City is categorized as “Paper.” Let's work together to reduce paper garbage using the “3Rs”.

Recyclable paper !

Do not put these kinds of papers in the garbage. They can be recycled!

How to dispose little pieces of paper

Put little pieces of papers (origami, paper string, etc.) into a paper bag and bundle it together with other paper wastes such as magazines using string. Secure well to prevent papers from flying away with the wind.

3. 　　　　　　Recycle resources

Some thing still need to be thrown away even after efforts to reduce and reuse. Sort recyclables and garbage correctly for resource recovery. “Unsorted garbage is just garbage, but pieces of unsorted garbage can become a resource after sorting it from the garbage.” Pieces of garbage can turn into a resource with the correct classification. Recycling reduces garbage and saves the limited resources on earth. However, recycling consumes a lot of energy and incurs high costs for operation of plants etc. Please remember that “Recycling is the last method to consider of the 3Rs.”

Remember to reduce kitchen garbage30% of burnable garbage in Sumida City is kitchen garbage. Most kitchen garbage is leftover food, cooking scraps and unused cooking ingredients. Reducing kitchen garbage will also reduce most burnable garbage. This helps prolong the lifespan of landfill disposal sites and reduce garbage disposal costs. Also, less waste from incineration plants will reduce CO2 emissions and may reduce global warming. The following are the easiest ways to reduce kitchen garbage.You can reduce wasteful garbage through various methods!

1. Reduce items that will become kitchen garbage

First, let’s reduce items will become kitchen garbage or may become kitchen garbage.

For example,…

▶ Do not overbuy food

Check food supplies at home and carefully evaluate what you need to buy before making a trip to the grocery store. Do not buy unnecessary food just because it is on sale.

▶ Do not cook too much food

Cook for the amount you will eat so that there will be no leftovers or wasted ingredients.

▶ Reduce cooking scrap

When you peel vegetable skins or remove the greasy part of meat, do not remove too much of the usable part. Also consider that removed parts can be ingredients for another dish.

2. Drain water

About 80% of kitchen garbage is water. Therefore, kitchen garbage volume can be reduced if water is properly drained out of it. For example, if 3 large spoonfuls of water (45cc) is drained from each household kitchen garbage daily, about 2,300 tons of garbage in a year will be reduced in Sumida City. Also, draining out water from kitchen garbage will control kitchen odors.

For example,…

▶ Wring it out

Wring out water from accumulated kitchen garbage within kitchen nets (including those attached to the kitchen sink and drain) using your hand or things such as empty bottles, etc. Doing this can significantly reduce the volume of kitchen garbage.

▶ Do not let garbage get wet

Do not leave peeled vegetable skin in the sink. Put them in a paper garbage bag made of newspaper, etc. to keep them dry. Keeping these dry will reduce the weight of garbage furthermore.

▶ Eat everything on your plate

It is wasteful to throw away cooked food. Appreciate the food available and eat everything on your plate.
