Abstract: This research characterizes the logistics consumers use to recycle their household waste. Through the analysis of twenty cases of waste-recyclers, it identifies three types of logistics based on the characteristics of the recycling context and the desired relation to waste: massification, just-in-time and pooling. This research contributes to the Consumer Logistics research field, showing that recycling is not only a question of motivation and context, but also of logistics.
