Sagamihara Garbage Collection

Use this multilingual guide to compare ward-level garbage collection rules, common collection streams, official links, and local setup notes. Sagamihara uses ward and town-name lookup for garbage and recyclables, with collection categories changing by item size, material and whether carry-in is required.

Quick answer: Collection days can change by address block, holiday, building, and local station. Always confirm the final day with the official ward page or GomiMate's address-level calendar.

Resident sorting checklist

Use this Sagamihara 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?

Sagamihara rules depend heavily on ward, town name and item size. Use the official lookup before placing resources, hazardous items, small appliances or large-size garbage at the station.

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.
