Abstract Indonesia has a regulation UU No. 18/2008 which changes the paradigm from waste dumping to recycling. The purpose of this study is to understand the achievement and obstacles of community-based waste recycling through the solid waste bank (SW bank) program and its potency to improve the local MSW management in Indonesia. SW bank program is a unique organization developed among Indonesian communities to facilitate citizen participation in solid waste recycling. The banking system is adopted, and the community deposits the wastes instead of money. Case study was done for Padang city. The existing condition in 2013 suggests that the amount of solid waste recycled by SW bank activity was only 0.05 % of the total MSW generation. This condition results in 35 % waste without proper treatment. To improve the existing condition, development scenario is planned for 15 years. This development scenario may result in the increase of recycling amount of SW bank activity to 6 % of the total MSW generation in 2028. SWOT analysis suggests that some strategies such as creating a local regulation may be adopted to utilize the potency of SW bank for local MSW management improvement.

Reduction includes minimization of SW generation, recycle and reuse. Handling includes waste separation, collection, transportation, treatment and landll [1]. Unfortunately, most local...
