Good morning, greetings from Orlando Florida. Awesome information and thank you for sharing.

The respectful way of disposing your trashes is to throw them away from the place you have purchased it from. Not finding a trash bin from another convenience store or at restaurant you dine in next are the correct way. Starbucks coffee shops should have trash bins outside their store for anyone to throw their trash away since there are so many of them around the world. The vending machine vendors will love them just a little more. I was so confused on how to sort the trashes and when is the correct day to put them outside during the week and had to sort to looking at the schedule sheet every time. Now, I know how to do all that from memory. Why are trash bins and the trash bags clear inside all train stations?

I'll be in Tokyo this October. I don't anticipate it being a problem since my family and I understand the language and culture pretty well...but I suppose most foreigners won't have any clue about this system. So, thanks for getting the word out! I've seen people carrying special "designer" bags made for storing trash. I think the problem with hotel room trash is that now many hotels will only clean the room every few days and their trash cans in the rooms are typically super tiny. Has this ever been a problem for hotel guests in your experience? I respect the laws and rules of Japan. I remember sorting all my recyclables into several bags and bringing them down to the recycle area below my apartment. But removing public trash cans kind of seems like an odd choice and it is obviously leading to problems such as people putting trash into any bin they find out of desperation. Even when I lived there, I'd see Japanese people on occassion putting their trash in other people's bicycle baskets. 😵‍💫

The hotels we stayed at this past spring and the ones we’re at so far this fall are doing cleaning every day. The trash cans are still very small.

When visited thier fast food restaurant like M...... Need to dispose off the waste like bone , ice water etc . It is very struggle especially no sign .

@JapanandMoreTours 7 месяцев назад

The trash at many restaurants is divided between burnable (paper products and food waste) and non-burnable (anything plastic, including something as small as a plastic straw and a plastic straw wrapper). Trash is also dependent on the city and business you’re visiting. Some cities are more strict than others. The only thing we can do, is try to do the best we can. I’ve been in Japan for most of my adult life, and I still mess it up. The most important thing is to make an effort and want to do it correctly. Mistakes will happen.

Year 2024, people all over the world don't throw away garbage, they recycle them and make another garbage to sell it back to you. 😅😅😅

You guys live in Japan. Tourist lives in a hotel with small trash can that can fit one meal of bento. If you stay in the hotel for a week it will not fit. Not everyone wants a maid in your room everyday. So I put the trash in front of the door. Japan should have more trash can in public. Have the hotel pay for it. Hotels like APA hotel are doubling the hotel price in USD not in yen. If Japanese tourism companies are exploting Japanese worker by keeping the profits they should use that extra money that they are pocketing to help pay for tourism infrastructure. Japanese companies should pay their workers a fair wage so Japanese people will work in the tour industry instead of moving to Australia to do farming. Japanese companies are speeding up the population decline in Japan.

In Japan, there used to be a lot of trash cans in parks, but there aren't any anymore. The reason is counter-terrorism measures. It may be difficult for people who come for sightseeing, but the reason there is no trash on the roads in Japan is because there are people who take it home and volunteer to pick up trash. If you want to throw away small food waste, just throw it away when you go shopping at a convenience store. It is bad manners to throw away trash without buying anything.

@masajo928 2 месяца назад

@@usercaf then Japan should put garbage can everywhere. Japan now needs tourism to survive. I put my trash in front of my hotel room because the trash can isn't big enough. Image if you visit Japan for a week with a small trash can. It will not fit. You might not understand because maybe you have not done a long oversea travel and only live in Japan. I just arrived Japan today. On the news it was talking about travelers at Lawson's by Mt Fuji. Yeah... Japan is hopeless. Bagging on tourist like 15 years ago when I was living in Japan like the IT industry. Look at Japan now. Look what the Japanese media got Japan into. Becoming a hopeless country.

@masajo928 2 месяца назад

@@usercaf yeah. You must be watching Japanese TV. Just arrived Japan today and still on TV bagging on Tourist at Mt Fuji Lawson. Maybe if the tourist was white the reaction might be different who knows. Blaming tourist without a solution. Japan was like that 15 years ago when I lived there and still the same. Bagging on the IT industry making them look bad and making Japan hopeless. Nothing changed. Japanese can't do disruptive innovation. Japan need General MacArthur again to reform the country.
