"To Save Just a Few Hundred Won?"... Outrage Over '3-Tier Garbage Lump'

First, there was someone who wrapped multiple garbage bags tightly with tape and put them out. It's not easy for sanitation workers to clean up when it's done like this, is it?

This photo was taken at a garbage disposal site in Geoje.

Standardized garbage bags, transparent bags, and paper bags were stacked in multiple layers and tightly bound with tape to form a single lump.

Some garbage that appeared to be food waste was reportedly mixed in as well.

Under current standards, there are weight limits for standardized garbage bags based on their capacity.

A 50-liter bag cannot exceed 13 kg, and a 75-liter bag cannot exceed 19 kg.

When multiple bags are tied together and put out, the weight that has to be lifted at once during collection inevitably increases.

Especially in alleys where vehicle access is difficult, sanitation workers have to carry them manually, so weight limits must be strictly observed.

Netizens reacted critically, saying, "Are they doing that to save just a few hundred won?" and "They need to think about the sanitation workers."
