In this study, a qualitative research design using a case study technique was applied. A series of in-depth interviews were conducted with two waste banks and several households around them. The result of this study is waste management practice will evoke collective mindfulness and collective mindful consumption with the following processes: (1) Agents may reconfigure the elements of material, rules, and skills of waste management practices. (2) When agents perform the waste management practice frequently and consistently, the residents will participate in the practice which means that the new practice recruit new carriers.
