There are also cases where municipalities handle general business waste and combined industrial waste.
Should empty lunch containers and plastic bottles that come from business establishments be treated as industrial waste? Furthermore, does the presence or absence of dirt affect the classification as industrial waste or general waste? First, according to the Waste Management and Public Cleansing Law, industrial waste refers to 20 specifically enumerated types of waste generated from business activities. While there is no industry designation for waste plastics, administrative scriveners with expertise in waste issues indicate that whether the eating and drinking activities of employees, which result in lunch containers and plastic bottles, qualify as business activities that meet the requirements for industrial waste varies by municipality. The practice of treating lunch containers and plastic bottles as industrial waste is not a uniform policy across the country; it differs by municipality.
