Trash Lens - Smart Waste Separation in Matsue

Gas Cylinder

To confirm

I attempted to access the Matsue City official website but was unable to directly view the city's official waste sorting page due to a connection error. Therefore, the following is listed as points requiring confirmation. Small household gas cylinders (cassette cylinders, cassette gas, etc.) are dangerous if they contain residual gas. Never puncture or heat them. Many municipalities may instruct that these be disposed of after emptying the contents, either through the city's hazardous waste collection or by bringing them to a waste treatment plant. Large propane cylinders or refillable cylinders should be returned to the gas supplier or arranged for collection by the supplier. When disposing, ensure the valve is securely closed, store away from open flames, and keep separate from combustible materials. Disposal methods vary by municipality, so please check the official Matsue City page or contact the Matsue City Cleaning Office before disposal.
