In some places, it is common to burn or bury the trash and these can be performed around the dwelling or away from it, as well these practices can be done individually or with neighbors.</li>
<li>The public waste dump is a public land or piece of land intended to receive and accumulate garbage in large quantities; generally it is located outside cities and is identified by the large amount of waste that it receives.</li>
<li>If the informants declare two or more ways to dispose of garbage, ask for the method more recurrent or for account for more garbage. Informants should determine it, but if they are unable to do, select the one that appears first in the answer choices.</li>
<li>If the answer is "the trash is picked up by a truck or cart designed for trash" or "is left in a container or deposit", go to question 21 "Separation". However, if the answer is different, record the corresponding code 3 to 6, and pass to question 22 "Separation and reuse".</li>
