The old paints are one of the disposal things that is hard to get rid of.
If you have only a few of the paint used for hobby or daily carpentry, you can throw it away easily as non-burnable garbage.
However, even if small tubes of paint used for hobby, if there is more than one 45L bag, the local government won’t take them away.
 
By the way, if you have many cans of the paints for business, you may have to use the time or money for the disposal.
If you don’t want to spend much money, you have a way of using a solidifying agent for paints.
I won’t recommend this way because you have to spend time much longer than you think.
In addition, the paints may not be completely solid by this solidifying agent, especially paint thinner can’t be solid.
If you have many paint cans such as below this picture, and if you have to make haste to get rid of them immediately, please let us know.

Comments Off on How to get rid of many used paints

Whether you are returning to Japan completely or moving within Japan, I feel that many people have trouble disposing of large pieces of furniture.
We will introduce the points you need to consider when considering bedding, which is one of the items that we are often asked to dispose of.
 
●Lifespan of frames and mattresses
The lifespan of bed frames and mattresses is generally said to be around 10 years, although the lifespan varies depending on the product.
It would be a waste to have to pay to transport frames and mattresses that have reached the end of their useful life.

Unsanitary conditions such as dents, distortions, creaking noises, and mold growth due to aging
It is recommended that frames and mattresses in this condition be disposed of.
 
●Tools required
When purchasing a bed, assembly services are often included as part of the bed price or as an optional fee.
In other words, it requires disassembly before being transported.

Tools are required to disassemble the bed. I think it’s a waste to buy tools just for disassembly work.
If you don’t have the tools, consider asking a professional to do it for you.
 
●Difference in size
My impression is that foreigners tend to prefer relatively larger beds than ours.
What we often see in actual requests is a large bed equivalent to a double or queen size.

Due to the small housing situation in Japan, such a large bed is not suitable and requires some ingenuity when moving it in and out.
It’s not practical to work alone, especially if you can only carry it upstairs. Please consider asking a professional.

If you are only comparing costs, municipal collection is the most optimal method.
However, they must be disposed of according to the categories specified by the rules.

If you dispose of waste in the wrong category, it will be considered illegal dumping and your visa may be cancelled.
You are required to carefully dispose of each item according to your local government.

If you are having trouble disposing of bed frames, mattresses, etc., there is a paid agency service called a “waste item collection company”.
Nishida Service is an “unwanted goods collection company” with staff who can speak English.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any trouble transporting, transporting, or disposing of bedding.

Whether you are returning to Japan completely or moving within Japan, I feel that many people have trouble disposing of large pieces of furniture.
We will introduce a little trick you need to consider when considering storage shelves, which are one of the items we are relatively asked to dispose of.
 
●Comparison of transportation costs and repurchase
Shelves for storing clothes, tableware, books, etc. are considered large pieces of furniture.
Large furniture like this is a factor that increases the burden of transportation, so it is easy to compare it with repurchasing at a new location.

Especially for those who use Fast Interior, it seems that there are many cases where “transportation cost + disposal cost > repurchase”.
We judge that there is little need to take the item to your new address, and we will contact you regarding disposal.
 
●It takes time and effort
Another reason other than transportation costs is the hassle of disassembling and assembling.
Most of the furniture sold in Japan requires some sort of assembly work to accommodate the small size of Japanese housing.
Therefore, it cannot be transported in its assembled state and must be disassembled in some way.

Thinking back to when you bought it or installed it, have you done any assembly work?
Without the necessary tools, you will not only be unable to disassemble it, but you will also be unable to reassemble it when you move.

Considering this amount of effort, we have finally decided to dispose of it.
 
●I want to dispose of the contents as well.
Some people also want to get rid of the contents such as clothes, tableware, and books that are stored with the shelves.
In particular, some people may wish to have all their belongings disposed of all at once, especially those who are returning to their home country completely after their study abroad or assignment period ends.

Unfortunately, when collected by local governments, they must be disposed of according to the categories set by the rules.
If you dispose of waste in the wrong category, it will be considered illegal dumping and your visa may be cancelled.
You are required to carefully dispose of each item according to your local government.

If you have trouble disposing of personal items such as storage shelves and their contents, there is a paid agency service called an “unwanted item collection company”.
