I know we all have issues with the various bins and other garbage receptacles, however we should spare a thought for our Japanese friends who must sort out their garbage even further ...... Newspapers...Glossy magazine type papers...Glass bottles...Plastic bottles...Aluminium cans (soft drink)...Cans (Food containers)...wrappers removed from P.E.T. bottles... Household products (broken furniture etc. All of these items have different collection days and MUST be put out at the CORRECT pick up point and ONLY within certain hours, some council areas require additional sorting and wrapping as per very strict written instructions.
