Abstract

In the article, the municipal waste management system was analyzed in the rural commune of Skrzyszów in the years 2016–2021. The analysis was prepared based on annual reports prepared and published by the Commune Office. The analysis showed that the selective waste collection system is functioning properly and that residents deliver municipal waste to the Municipal Waste Selective Collection Point (MSWCP) Pogórska Wola. Every year, the mass of municipal waste generated by residents of the Skrzyszów commune increases, in 2021 it amounted to 309 kg per person. The analysis of the fraction of municipal waste collected from households showed that biodegradable waste, bulky waste, and glass packaging have the largest mass share. Bulky waste, especially used car tires, was the dominant fraction of municipal waste delivered to MSWCP. The Skrzyszów commune has achieved the assumed recycling levels for biodegradable waste, construction waste, and paper, metals, plastics, and glass waste specified in the Waste Management Plan for the Małopolskie Voivodeship for 2016–2022.
