    The "Accumulation Start Date" should be written on the bin label in the accumulation center when a waste is first placed in the bin. This is important for tracking and managing the waste properly, as it helps to determine the duration of time the waste has been accumulating in the bin. By noting the start date, it becomes easier to ensure compliance with regulations regarding waste disposal and to schedule appropriate disposal or treatment of the waste.
