The waste problem has developed into a serious problem that affects society as a whole, especially in urban areas, in many countries due to population growth, and social and economic activities. As long as humans live on Earth, the amount of waste produced by humans will continue to increase. Garbage is one of the results of human activity, and the amount of waste increases along with population. (Hartono, 2008). This type of research is descriptive quantitative research with the design used being cross-sectional which emphasizes measuring/observing independent and dependent variable data only once at a time. This research was carried out by distributing questionnaires which were then filled in independently by the respondents.
