Garbage Management In Nepal
Vehicles carrying garbage from Kathmandu Valley queue on the roadside following a protest by locals of Nuwakot District that leads to the dumping site in Nuwakot District, Nepal, on May 2, 2025. At least 1,200 metric tons of garbage is dumped at the Sisdole landfill site daily from the valley. Every day, 200 vehicles, both private and public, transport garbage to Sisdole from the valley. The Kathmandu Metropolitan City generates over 500 tonnes of waste daily, while the valley generates double that amount. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto)
