Before Pickup Morning in Chiyoda Ward

Use this checklist before leaving garbage at a Chiyoda Ward collection station. It combines the ward's official schedule fields with the resident caveats that cause most rejected bags.

  • Confirm the chome or apartment collection board because Chiyoda Ward schedules may change by block.
  • Match the Japanese category label: burnable, non-burnable, recyclable, bulky, or hazardous.
  • Put bags out only in the morning pickup window unless your building has a managed storage room.
  • For bulky waste, reserve first and attach the correct paid sticker before collection day.
