Q
How should the handling of joss paper be dealt with during Tomb Sweeping Day (Qingming Festival) and the Ghost Festival?

The Bureau categorizes the demand for processing joss paper into three main types and establishes individual mechanisms for each category, as described below:

(1)For those with a large quantity of joss paper (several tons to tens of tons), they can commission qualified waste removal companies to transport and incinerate it in incinerators equipped with pollution control devices.


(2)For those with a small quantity of joss paper (several kilograms (more than 10 kilograms) to several hundred kilograms), they can transport it themselves to designated locations at each public office or contact the joss paper processing hotline at 049-2240252.


(3)For those with an extremely small quantity of joss paper (several kilograms to a few kilograms), they can transport it themselves to designated locations at each public office or contact the joss paper processing hotline at 049-2240252.
