Garbage truck: this service can be provided with a garbage truck or compacting truck, property of the canton municipality or by a private garbage collector whenever this service is contracted and paid for by the municipality. This does not include private services contracted directly by the people of the community.

Thrown in a hole or buried: this option should be assigned when the garbage is deposited in a hole with the objective of remaining outside the dwelling. In general when the hole fills with garbage, this is covered, and the buried garbage burned.

[p. 120]

Burned: when the garbage is deposited in a hole or recipient with the objective of burning it in order to eliminate it. If it is burned and then buried, consider this to be burned.

Thrown in a vacant lot: when the garbage is deposited in a lot or unoccupied terrain, whenever this is close to the dwelling.

Thrown in a river, gorge, or sea: when the garbage is thrown or deposited in some river, gorge, or sea, whenever this is close to the dwelling.

[Figures are omitted]

• The first option refers to the garbage pickup service.
• The second option identifies whether there are containers or tanks around the dwelling.
• Burning or burying garbage are habits of populations when they do not have a garbage pickup service, or for some reason when they do not use that service. In some places, it is common to burn or bury the trash and these can be performed around the dwelling or away from it, as well these practices can be done individually or with neighbors.
• The public waste dump is a public land or piece of land intended to receive and accumulate garbage in large quantities; generally it is located outside cities and is identified by the large amount of waste that it receives.
• If the informants declare two or more ways to dispose of garbage, ask for the method more recurrent or for account for more garbage. Informants should determine it, but if they are unable to do, select the one that appears first in the answer choices.
• If the answer is "the trash is picked up by a truck or cart designed for trash" or "is left in a container or deposit", go to question 21 "Separation". However, if the answer is different, record the corresponding code 3 to 6, and pass to question 22 "Separation and reuse".

VII. Garbage
20. Separation and reuse
These questions allow us to know if the population separates their daily waste in their homes into organic and inorganic; if they separate some food scraps or waste to give to animals; if they separate waste to fertilize plants or gardens; if they separate PET (plastic), aluminum (cans) or paper (cardboard) to sell it, donate it, give it away or recycle it. In other words, they make it possible to identify waste separation and reuse practices in households.

[Figure omitted: image with text]

Read the question mentioning each option until you get an affirmative answer and select the corresponding code.

The first option refers to the household collection service, either by means of a special truck for this activity or by means of carts adapted by cleaning personnel or private individuals who are in charge of collecting the garbage produced by the population in their housing units.

[p. 258]

[Image omitted]

The second option identifies whether there are containers or deposits around the housing unit, or if there is a collective container or deposit in the building or group of housing units where garbage is deposited and where a truck or cleaning personnel picks it up.

[Image omitted]

Burning or burying garbage is a common practice among the population when there is no household garbage collection service or, for some reason, they do not use it. In some places, these are common practices and can be carried out around the housing unit or far from it, as well as individually or collectively.

[Images omitted]

[p. 259]

A public landfill is a property or land destined to receive and accumulate large quantities of garbage; it is generally located on the outskirts of population centers and is identified by a large amount of waste it receives. Circle this option when the residents of the housing unit throw garbage directly to these places.

The last option, dumped elsewhere, identifies when residents leave their garbage on the streets, vacant lots, ravines, crevices, rivers, and lakes, or dump it in the sea.

If the respondents state two or more ways of disposing of garbage, ask for the most recurrent or the one to where they throw the largest amount. The respondents should determine this, but if they are unable to do so, select the one that appears first in the response options.

The proportion of households with access to sanitary manner of garbage disposal provides knowledge of the environmental living conditions and is therefore essential for health planners in the formulation of plans and programs to improve general health conditions.

Inquire from the respondent the manner by which the household disposes its kitchen garbage such as leftover food, peelings of fruits and vegetables, fish and chicken entrails, etc. If the household has various ways of disposing its kitchen garbage, ask for the manner used most of the time.

Described below are some of the more common methods of disposal used in the country.

3 Burning - when the household dumps its garbage in an open space or pit and burns it.

4 Composting - when garbage is composted, that is, allowed to decay under controlled conditions and the composted materials are collected later for use as soil conditioner or fertilizer.

5 Burying - when the garbage is thrown in pit and then covered with soil.
