The Definition of Waste Bank<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Waste Bank is a concept of collecting & segregating solid waste that involves systems such as banking, but what is saved is not money but waste.

Waste deposited by the customer will be weighed and valued with a sum of money, the waste will later be sold at factories or recycling agents or it can also be handed over to local upcycling agents for processing.<\/p>\n\n\n
