Abstract: Waste management is a challenge in most developing nations. In 2021, cities around the world produced 11 billion tons of solid trash annually, or 3.85 kg per person, per day. It goes without saying that this number will more than double by 2025 to 33 billion tons (MT) due to urbanization and rapid population development. The inquiry has therefore revealed several issues, some of which include a lack of poor garbage collection methods, and a general lack of support for waste management from public. In this regard, it makes suggestions for increasing the efficiency of garbage collection by granting recycling companies direct access to waste owners. The public's involvement is crucial, and it should be kept in mind that this is not a task that can be completed with a single operation. As an encouragement for waste owners, we have suggested an e-money rewarding method for them. To recycle the trash in a way that doesn't harm society or the environment, a new waste management paradigm is needed. Alternative waste management strategy like converting waste to recycled products and rewarding with coins where people can eventually use that money to buy recycled items, the nation's current waste management strategy should be further expanded to pave the way for increased sustainability.
