Garbage is collected in municipal vans containing dry waste and wet waste bins. Even the residents segregate the waste before putting it in the van.
The van then transports the waste to the waste transfer station, where it is separated into six different types. It then goes to the trenching ground, where the waste is further separated and then sent to various industries for recycling. Indore has been following this process for five years. The dumping yard that once looked like a mountain of garbage is now a factory where hundreds of women segregate waste every day.

It charges Rs 60 per month from houses in slums, Rs 90 per household in middle class areas and Rs 150 per month in posh areas.
