Our process
Where your waste goes
Everything we collect is sorted so that as little as possible ends up in landfill.
Doorstep collection
Small vehicles collect from registered homes, starting at 5 or 6 AM.
Transfer station
Loads are sorted and salable, reusable items are separated out.
Recycling
Paper is recycled at our Gokarna plant and plastic is made into pipes in Balaju.
Composting
Degradable waste becomes compost for farmers and roadside plants.
Landfill
Only what is left goes to the Bancharedanda landfill in Nuwakot.
Segregation guide
Sort at home. It makes all the difference.
Keeping degradable and non-degradable waste apart lets us turn more of it into compost and recycled products.
Collected twice a week

Questions
Answers to common questions
The questions our customers ask most often.
Why aren’t all customers charged the same fee?
Our fee depends mainly on:
- the quantity and type of waste collected
- the number of family members
- the size of the house (number of flats)
Why wasn’t my waste collected on the scheduled day?
Collection can be delayed mainly by:
- obstacles at the landfill site
- strikes and shutdowns
- road problems
When there is a problem at the landfill site, our local station fills to capacity, and we can only collect waste again once the landfill problem is solved.
Why does the fee keep increasing?
We don’t raise fees irregularly. Increases depend on two main factors:
- Changes on the customer’s side — more waste or a different type of waste, a larger family, or a bigger house (more flats).
- General conditions — usually an increase of around 20% every two years as market and fuel prices rise.
