일반 쓰레기 means general trash / regular waste.

In Korean waste-sorting language, this usually means trash that is not:

• recyclable
• food waste
• oversized waste
• a special disposal item

So it is a category label, not just a random description of trash.

는 is the topic marker.

Here, 일반 쓰레기는 means something like:

• As for general trash, ...
• Regarding general trash, ...

This is very common in instructions and notices, especially when different categories are being compared:

• 일반 쓰레기는 ...
• 재활용은 ...
• 음식물 쓰레기는 ...

So 는 helps set up general trash as the topic, and it can also carry a slight contrast idea: general trash is handled this way, while other kinds of waste may be handled differently.

Using 이/가 would focus more on general trash as the grammatical subject of the sentence.

Using 는 is more natural in a notice like this because the sentence is giving a rule or procedure for a category. It sounds like:

• As for general trash, it is collected in sacks.

So 는 fits the informational, instructional tone better.

마대 means a sack or large collection bag.

In waste-disposal contexts, it usually refers to a big sturdy bag, not an ordinary small bag. Depending on context, it may be:

• a burlap-style sack
• a woven plastic sack
• a heavy-duty waste bag

So 마대에 suggests putting the trash into a large sack/bag used for collection.

Here, 에 marks the place/container where something is gathered.

So 마대에 모아 means:

• gather it in a sack
• put it together into a sack

In English, this can sound like in or into, depending on how you interpret the action.

모아 comes from the verb 모으다, which means to gather, to collect together, or to put together.

Here, 모아 is the connective form:

• 모으다 → 모아

It links this action to the next one:

• 마대에 모아 수거합니다
• Gather it into sacks and collect it

You could also see 모아서, which is a slightly fuller version:

• 마대에 모아서 수거합니다

That means essentially the same thing.

They are related, but they are not the same action.

• 모으다 = to gather together / put together
• 수거하다 = to collect / pick up / remove for disposal

So the sentence describes a two-step process:

1. the trash is gathered into sacks
2. then it is collected/picked up

So it is not redundant. It is more like:

• General trash is gathered into sacks and then collected.

Great question. 수거합니다 is grammatically an active formal verb form meaning collect(s) or collect.

But in Korean public notices, the subject is often omitted, and the sentence describes a procedure or system rule rather than focusing on who does it.

So depending on context, English often translates it more naturally as:

• is collected
• will be collected
• is picked up

even though Korean literally uses an active form.

This is very common in signage and official instructions.

The sentence does not explicitly say.

That is normal in Korean.

In real life, the implied actors are often different for each step:

• residents/users gather the trash into sacks
• sanitation workers / the city / the service collect it

But Korean often leaves that unstated and simply presents the procedure as a rule.

So the sentence is less about who and more about how general trash is handled.

수거합니다 is in the formal polite style called 합니다-style.

This style is very common in:

• public notices
• instructions
• manuals
• announcements
• official writing

It sounds appropriate and professional.

Less formal versions would be:

• 수거해요 (polite everyday speech)
• 수거해 (casual)

But on a sign or official guide, 수거합니다 is the natural choice.

Not necessarily.

Although it is in the present tense, Korean present tense often expresses:

• a general fact
• a routine practice
• a policy
• an instruction

So here it means something like:

• General trash is collected this way
• General trash should be gathered in sacks for collection

It is describing the normal procedure, not necessarily something happening at this exact moment.
