Waste is one of the problems that require appropriate policy, law, effective strategy, management and cooperation. The indiscriminate dumping of solid waste on roadsides and into drains is leading to serious health hazard and degradation of living environment for millions of people. This study aims to provide the information about the current zone-wise waste management system, practices, existing problems and people’s perception in Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) to ameliorate the scenario for future. Data were collected by semi-structured questionnaire survey with 200 families as well as Key Informants Interview (KII) at DNCC to understand the waste generation in relation to population growth, new consumer product in market, income level, and education. It is found that the volume of waste generation will be reached 1954063 MTs in 2025 in compare to 560880 Million Tons (MTs) of 2014 with a growth rate 7.5% to 68.9% respectively.
