We visited Sakurajima island by Kagoshima recently and were just wandering around local residences. This was by the road – my husband can read Japanese and told me it seemed to be a place to bring all the bagged-up "dust" or dirt that was sweeped up around the house.
But my question is – why?? How come it has to be disposed of in such a specific way? Why does everyone have to bring bags of dirt to a drop-off? Is the volcanic ash a concern? So puzzled by this. Does anyone have any insight on this?
