If you have moved to Japan, one of the first things you'll need to do is get hold of your town's gomi guide. Gomi ごみ (sometimes written ゴミ) is the Japanese word for garbage. Here's an example guide from Niihama City. It is forty-two pages long! That kind of length isn't unusual either. As the Tokyo International Communication Committee says in its garbage guide, "Trash-related issues could easily become a cause of trouble with your neighbors. To establish a comfortable life for both you and others in the community, it is important to follow local rules for trash collection.".
