Waste collecting point as the school of the waste management system

Abstract

Waste collecting point is a communal waste management system with systematic sorting of waste at the source recommended by the Banda Aceh City Government to be applied to schools, namely the State Middle School 1 in Banda Aceh City. This study aims to determine the implementation of waste collecting points in an effort to overcome the problem of waste in schools. The method used in this study is the study of interviews, observations, research results, technical guidelines, journals, books, and government documents by analyzing data in a qualitative descriptive manner. The waste collecting point system is expected to be a system that will continue to be tested and developed through expert validation and limited testing. This system is useful for providing recommendations to schools in efforts to manage waste. Based on the results of the study that the implementation of waste collecting points as a waste management system has been running effectively but there are still several problems, namely the allocation of funds for the provision of facilities and infrastructure, garbage transport schedules, transportation officer errors, and lack of socialization by the city government.
