Abstract: Last decade, the differentiation in types of waste collection systems for household waste is expanding strongly. We see a shift from people service (door-to-door collection) to selfservice (bring-your-waste systems). Every system has his own advantages and disadvantages.Governments has to start modelling the service level of their waste collection systems, based on ‘the pace of production’ and ‘the need to quick disposal’. If they allow more for customer perspectives, managing of waste behaviour will be easier and cheaper. If they don’t start modelling, they‘ll only have the highest service for the resource streams with the highest economic value. Did you know that the speed of innovation is linked to the total number of people living on the planet. If you look at history, the world population explosion is a recent phenomenon.
