Systems for the collection of municipal solid waste (MSW) are provided in most cities and towns, but not in rural areas. Very little recycling of waste is undertaken. Wastes are mainly disposed of at municipal dump sites. With few exceptions (Sharra and Bushat landfills), there are no properly managed landfill sites in the country.
