How do I arrange junk removal in Higashisumiyoshi Ward, Osaka City?
There's no separate system for Higashisumiyoshi Ward — it uses the same citywide oversized-garbage (粗大ごみ) program that Osaka City runs across all 24 wards. You buy a ¥200–¥1,000 disposal ticket per item (the exact price depends on the item) and apply by phone or online. TVs, air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, and clothes dryers fall under the Home Appliance Recycling Law and aren't collected as oversized garbage — they need a separate recycling fee plus haulage. If you have a large volume, can't carry items out yourself, or want everything cleared on moving day, a junk-removal service is less effort. Compare Osaka-area providers free on IeGo.
