FAQ

How do I find my exact garbage day?

Choose your ward first, then confirm the address block or collection station. Large apartments can have their own internal waste room rules.

Do I need a special garbage bag?

Kyoto uses paid designated bags for regular household garbage, cans/bottles/PET bottles, and plastic containers and packaging. Some special resources use transparent bags or collection points, so check the category before buying bags.

How do I dispose of bulky waste?

Bulky waste requires advance booking, a fee, and a disposal sticker or confirmation number. Do not leave large items at a station without booking.
