In Algeria, the Ministry of the Environment has been in charge of municipal waste over the last decades, consequently, terms and organisations were adopted. Since 2001 the government committed themselves to improving this service using various technical means. Yet, on the other hand, waste has been increasing due to the population rise. Household refuse will be growing, it might exceed 30 million tons unless preventive measures are implemented so are macroeconomic trends extending in the years to come. Landfill sites as a method of disposal triggered additional costs to local communities and a flat rate in order to finance these facilities remains unenforceable. The most significant thing is 'quality' of services provided which would greatly urge households to financially contribute so that the expenses regarding waste collection and processing would be covered. Furthermore, setting up instructions would make people more aware of waste treatment. This device is to allow people to reduce packaging waste. More efficient organisation of collection tours would help reduce costs related to the distance.
