Waste Management can be applied to almost all types of waste that are generated. Most commonly, waste management services are applied to:
- Wet Waste – Refers to all items that are organic like food items, soiled food wrappers, hygiene products, yard waste, tissues and paper towels, as well as any other soiled item that would contaminate the recyclables.
- Dry Waste – Refers to all items such as bottles, cans, clothing, plastic, wood, glass, metals and paper.
- Waste Water – Refers to all waste water that is generated directly or indirectly by human activities
- Other Waste – Refers to other waste such as sanitary waste, household e-waste, and more. These are not generated in the same quantities as the above mentioned wastes.
