Abstract
Presence of uncollected waste on roadsides, empty plots and on residencies is becoming a common feature in Avondale. The aim of the study was to identify a solid waste collection system that residents of Avondale and the type of support residents were willing to offer to the selected system. There is no solid waste collection in Avondale. The current situation has been linked to the inability of the city council to effectively collect waste. Poor finances and planning have been cited as the major contributing factors. The research has shown that the residents of Avondale want to have a solid waste collection system that they will be able to support. The collection system that was chosen is the curbside liftable container system. The residents are willing to pay money to a desirable service provider.
