Purworejo Strengthens 12 Waste Banks, Encourages Sorting from Home

He also asked grant recipients to maintain equipment, use it according to its function, and pay attention to transport capacity so that the aid can be used sustainably.

The statement from the Purworejo District Government has not detailed the distribution of equipment to each waste bank, the number of households served, or the targeted volume of waste that can be managed. Thus, the impact of aid on waste management still needs to be seen from its use in the field.

Adipura's assessment is a momentum for improvement

The distribution of aid took place ahead of the Adipura assessment which, according to Yuli, Purworejo Regency will face in November 2026.

He asked that this momentum be used to strengthen cooperation and concern for environmental cleanliness.

"Make the momentum of this Adipura assessment an encouragement to continue to improve and strengthen cooperation in creating a clean, healthy and comfortable Purworejo Regency," he said.

For residents, strengthening waste banks is related to the sustainability of waste management in their living environment. Support for facilities and invitations to sort from home are part of this effort, while the results need to be demonstrated through routine management activities.
