How to Start local recyclables collection

・The local recyclables collection will be decided at meetings of the Neighborhood Association Neighborhood Associations and others.

・Determination of Representative and Person in charge　　 ※Registration of the representative is required.

　If there is a person who performs clerical work (accounting, etc.) separately from the representative, you can register as a person in charge separately from the representative.

　(Example: Mr. Neighborhood Association, Mr. Residential Association, Mr. in charge of accounting and environmental affairs)

　All documents related to local recyclables collection will be sent to the person in charge. (If there is no registration of the person in charge, it will be sent to the representative.)

　[Notes]
　・Let's share roles such as organizing collection points, publicizing and disseminating information to the community, applying for incentives, accounting, etc. so that only some people will bear the burden.
　・Application for incentives after registration is completed is basically online (PC / smartphone) application.
　※If the contracted collection company does not support online applications, registered organizations cannot apply online.
