DRY WASTE MANAGEMENT

The Dry waste that is collected from houses is transported to a nearby Dry Waste center where it is further sorted into 20 to 30 different categories. This process is called secondary segregation. Voluminous dry waste is bailed to make it compact and then transported to different destinations for recycling/resource recovery.
