Abstract: Managing Solid waste is a significant issue with the ever-increasing and rising complexity of wastes in tune with faster urbanization and population growth. Inefficient solid waste management causes health, environmental pollution, and social issues. The local bodies entrusted with collecting and disposing of waste face severe management and technical issues in this regard. The general public, which contributes to the waste stream in a big way, has apprehensions about the system. The study evaluates waste disposal services provided by local bodies through a contingent valuation survey.
