If properly managed and disposed poses no hazard to human existence. However, unmanaged waste, left to litter and decay particularly in inhabited location spells serious dangers to human health. The aim of this study is to improve the situation of indiscriminate waste disposal method in Benin city, efficiently managing waste and creating awareness of the dangers associated with waste.
