A

In principle, Yokohama City does not collect waste (business-related waste) generated from business activities (regardless of profit or non-profit).
(If you discharge business waste to a collection site in household garbage, you may be punished by law.)

Please dispose of it yourself, or entrust it to a licensed contractor (licensed contractor) for general waste collection and transportation for general waste, and for industrial waste, to dispose of it.

However, if all of the following three requirements are met, they are registered as "house annexation establishments" and collected by the city.
(After registration, it is necessary to specify the business name on the garbage bag. If you do not specify it, you will not be able to collect it.)

1. The office must be located in conjunction with the residence
 (Note) This does not apply if there is a store on the first floor in a condominium, etc., and there is a house above the second floor, or if the house and office are separate buildings even on the same site.

2 Employees must be made up of relatives of living together.

3 The amount of business-related garbage is always 3 kilograms a day. Or "household garbage Business Garbage" must be less than 5 kilograms
