Abstract: Abstract With the rapid development of urbanization and acceleration of urban renewal, huge construction, renovation and demolition activities can be found across China causing the quantities of construction and demolition (C&D) waste to increase at a high speed. Successful C&D waste management (C&D WM) has a significant impact for long-term development of Shenzhen and Hong Kong. This paper firstly presents the status quo of C&D WM in the two cities. Then, a comparative analysis of C&D WM between them with SWOT framework is conducted. Finally, some effective management measures are proposed for Shenzhen as well as other mainland cities to further improve their C&D WM performance.
