Resident sorting checklist
Use this Niigata guide as a practical starting point before checking the official municipal waste page for your exact address.
Collection rules can change by ward, address block, apartment building, collection station, holiday, bag type, and whether an item needs a booking or paid sticker.
For bulky waste, appliances, batteries, spray cans, fluorescent tubes, and moving-out waste, confirm the official route before placing anything at the collection point.

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?
Use Niigata designated bags for household garbage. Resource categories may use transparent bags or bundles, while bulky waste needs advance booking and the assigned disposal-ticket value.
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.
