It is widely agreed that public support is vital to the success of most solid waste management programs and schemes; the actions of householders are paramount to the success of sustainable solid waste policies. However, the success of solid waste management programs or schemes is not just dependent on public participation; it is also dependent on having the right infrastructure and service provision in place, as well as tailoring to local needs.
