Jongno-gu Introduces 'Location-Based Volume-Based Waste Bag Service'

Jongno-gu to Introduce Seoul's First 'Location-Based Volume-Based Waste Bag Service' in September

Residents Can Check Nearby Volume-Based Waste Bag Vendors and Real-Time Recent Stock Information (by Liter and Type) on the District Office Website

Features Such as Directions and Road View Included... Plans to Enhance Functions Including Multilingual Support in the Future

Jongno-gu (District Mayor Jeong Munheon) will launch Seoul's first 'Location-Based Volume-Based Waste Bag Vendor Information Service' on September 10 as part of smart administration aimed at significantly improving resident convenience.

This service attracts attention as it allows users to search for nearby volume-based waste bag vendors on a map via the district office website and check recent stock information (by liter and type) in real time.

Previously, the district only posted basic information such as vendor names, addresses, and contact numbers on the district office website.

As a result, residents could not check real-time stock status by vendor, causing inconvenience when purchasing 1-liter (ℓ) food waste bags or special sacks, which are handled by fewer vendors, requiring visits to multiple stores.

However, with the launch of this service next month, anyone can check vendors within the area that have had stock entries in the past three months on a map and also view stock status within the last month.

Additionally, the district plans to provide features such as directions to vendors and road view to further enhance resident convenience.

District Mayor Jeong Munheon stated, “We expect this volume-based waste bag service, which combines convenience and safety, to improve the quality of life for residents,” adding, “We will lead smart administration through continuous function enhancements, including future multilingual support.”
