Results: the analysis showed that the cleaning public service has been oriented mainly to collecting and transporting the residues to their final disposal, without considering the regular stages that should be an integral part of the solid residues process.

Conclusion: the need to implement permanent sensibilization and education campaigns oriented towards an attitudinal change in those involved in the municipal residual handling was identified. In addition, it is important to develop solution strategies for those people to take responsibility concerning local problems to get involved in an ongoing improvement of the previously mentioned managerial process.
