As an exclave area, Colomadu is separated geographically from but is still part of Karanganyar administrative region. This position affects Colomadu because it is not covered by the solid waste management services from the respective regency institution (Dinas Kebersihan dan Pertamanan). As the consequences, about 70 per cent communities in Colomadu manage their solid waste with dumping and burning. This study aims to formulate institutional strategy of solid waste management in Colomadu district. There are two methods used in this research, i.e. research and planning methods. Observation and questionnaire data collection are used to understand recent solid waste management practices.
