Waste management is one of the biggest challenges facing Tanzania today. From households to industries, large amounts of waste are generated daily, and if not properly managed, they can cause serious environmental and health problems. At Zambetakis Waste Management, we provide professional, safe, and sustainable solutions for handling all types of waste across the country.

In this article, we’ll break down the main types of waste in Tanzania and how Zambetakis helps businesses, organizations, and communities manage them effectively.

1. Municipal & Household Waste

This includes everyday waste from homes, offices, and public spaces—such as food leftovers, paper, plastics, glass, and packaging materials.
Our Solution: Zambetakis offers efficient collection, sorting, and recycling services to reduce landfill use while promoting a cleaner, healthier environment.

2. Industrial & Commercial Waste

Factories, workshops, construction sites, and businesses generate large volumes of solid waste, including scrap metal, wood, plastics, and construction debris.
Our Solution: We provide customized waste disposal and recycling programs tailored to different industries to ensure safe and eco-friendly waste management.

3. Medical & Clinical Waste

Hospitals, clinics, and laboratories produce hazardous medical waste such as syringes, bandages, expired drugs, and contaminated materials. Improper disposal can spread infections and endanger lives.
Our Solution: Zambetakis specializes in the safe collection, treatment, and disposal of medical waste in compliance with Tanzania’s health and safety regulations.

4. Hazardous Waste

This category includes chemicals, solvents, batteries, pesticides, and electronic waste (e-waste) that can be toxic or flammable. If handled carelessly, hazardous waste poses risks to human health, soil, and water sources.
Our Solution: We use advanced techniques and follow strict safety protocols to transport and dispose of hazardous waste responsibly, protecting both people and the environment.

5. Agricultural Waste

Farms generate organic waste such as crop residues, animal manure, and pesticides. While much of it can be reused, poor disposal practices often lead to pollution.
Our Solution: Zambetakis promotes sustainable solutions by converting organic agricultural waste into compost or energy resources where possible.
