Goyang Special City plans to produce leaflets titled ‘Proper Food Waste Disposal Methods’ and posters titled ‘Food Waste Curbside Collection Disposal Methods’ and distribute them to local residents through each neighborhood administrative welfare center.

The leaflet includes information on food waste disposal methods by region, a food waste true-or-false quiz to clarify common confusions, and a checklist for reducing food waste, making it easy for residents to refer to.

The poster contains guidelines on proper food waste disposal methods for residents in areas with curbside food waste collection, such as adhering to disposal times, disposing in front of one’s own house, and using curbside collection containers.

In particular, the posters produced this time will be distributed directly to each household and simultaneously posted on shared entrances of villas and multi-family housing. Through this, it is expected to encourage residents to dispose of food waste correctly at designated places and times, prevent illegal dumping, and create a pleasant residential environment.

An official from the Resource Circulation Division stated, “Residents’ interest and participation greatly help create a clean local environment,” and added, “We will continue to promote and guide so that residents can recognize the proper food waste disposal methods.”
