Solid waste refers to any garbage, refuse, sludge from a waste water treatment plant. It contains organic as well as inorganic matters, which are produced by various activities of the society. Solid waste referred as a non liquid material that no longer has value to the person who is responsible for the generation of the product. In the 21st century, the sustainable management of municipal solid waste (MSW) will get to be distinctly fundamental at all periods of effect from wanting to configuration, to operation, and to decommissioning. Municipal solid waste management is a critical element towards sustainable metropolitan consists of segregation, storage collection, processing, and disposal of solid waste to lower its impact on environment. (Kumar, et al, 2009) [2]. Reutilization of solid waste is not a feasible option in context of solid waste management. (Kasseva & Mbuligwe, 2000) [3]. Rule of SWM should be taken in such a way that ground realities and allow time for suitable processes should be developed. Rag pickers are working for unorganized sectors, thus proper organized sectors for the reuse and recycling of waste needs to be put in place, thus reducing the load on transportation and landfill.
