Proper Trash Disposal in Your Apollo Properties Apartment in Osaka.

Living in an Apollo Properties apartment in Osaka comes with the responsibility of following Japan’s strict waste disposal rules. Proper trash separation and disposal help maintain a clean and safe living environment for all residents. Here are some key guidelines to ensure you handle your waste correctly.

1. Separate Your Waste Properly

Osaka has a categorized waste system, and it’s important to sort your trash accordingly:

  • Burnable Waste (Moeru Gomi) – Kitchen scraps, paper waste, and small wooden items. Collected twice a week.
  • Non-Burnable Waste (Moenai Gomi) – Items like glass, ceramics, and metal objects. Collection is typically twice a month.
  • Recyclables (Shigen Gomi) – Includes PET bottles, cans, and glass bottles. Follow your local collection schedule.
  • Large Waste (Sodai Gomi) – Furniture, appliances, and oversized items require a special pickup request and fee.

2. Use the Correct Bags and Follow Collection Schedules

Each type of waste must be disposed of in designated city-approved trash bags. Be sure to check the collection schedule specific to your neighborhood to avoid missed pickups.

3. Dispose of Trash at the Designated Collection Point

Your apartment building will have a designated trash collection area. Please ensure you place your garbage there only on the correct collection days to keep the area tidy.

4. Special Disposal for Electronics and Hazardous Waste

Old appliances, batteries, and hazardous materials require proper disposal through certified collection services. Contact Osaka’s waste management office or Apollo Properties for guidance.

By following these simple steps, we can all contribute to a cleaner and more organized community. If you have any questions, feel free to ask your property manager for assistance!
