About hazardous used equipment (so-called miscellaneous goods scraps)

Final update date April 1, 2023

Electrical and electronic devices that have been discontinued are often traded as valuable resources, and until now it has been difficult to demand proper management by regulation as waste. On the other hand, however, there is a need for proper management due to problems in the living environment of conservation.
For this reason, from April 1, 2018, due to the revision of the Waste Management Law, 32 items of used electronic devices have been designated as harmful used equipment, and businesses handling them must be notified and comply with standards for storage and disposal. Will be required.
