Waste management initiatives in Porto Velho

Overview

Porto Velho has implemented several waste management and urban cleaning initiatives. The city launched ‘Recicla Pay’, a program using ‘Retorna Machine’ technology that allows residents to exchange recyclable materials like aluminum, plastic, and glass for financial rewards via Pix payments. Participants earn ‘Tricoins’ through a mobile application, which can be converted into currency once a specific threshold is met.

In addition to recycling incentives, the city’s ‘Cidade Limpa’ operation reported collecting 2,525 tons of waste in September. Municipal cleaning services, managed by the Executive Secretariat of Basic Services, included street cleaning and grass mowing across various neighborhoods, with the highest waste volumes recorded in the East Zone.
