Vehicle fire occurs during non-combustible garbage collection
At around 10;00 a.m. on Wednesday, December 27, 2023, a vehicle fire occurred during non-combustible garbage collection work in Nishiazai-cho, Nagahama City.
As a result of the on-site inspection, garbage that could lead to a fire accident, such as spray cans and lighters, was discovered among the garbage collected.
Fortunately, the collectors were not injured in this accident, and there was no damage to the area where it occurred, however, accidents like this have the potential to become serious accidents that could threaten human life.
Once again, please check the garbage separation rules
when disposing of garbage.

▲Extinguishing the fire by discharging garbage from the collection vehicle onto the street
▲Spray cans, batteries, and lighters were found in the trash.
Until now, small electronic devices with non-removable rechargeable batteries, such as game consoles, handy fans, and electric shavers, had been advised to be disposed of as non-flammable garbage. From April 1, 2024, you will be able to dispose of it as recyclable garbage (used dry batteries). Thank you for your cooperation.
※For small electronic devices with easily removable batteries, such as digital cameras and remote controls, please remove the batteries before disposing of them as non-burnable garbage. Dispose of the removed batteries as recyclables (used dry batteries).
