Garbage classification refers to the general term for a series of activities that classify, store, place and transport garbage according to certain regulations or standards, thereby transforming it into public resources. The purpose of classification is to increase the resource value and economic value of garbage and strive to make the best use of it. Garbage is the private property of the public during the classification and storage stage. After the garbage is classified and put out by the public, it becomes a regional quasi-public resource in the community or community where the public lives. After the garbage is classified and transported to garbage collection points or transfer stations, it becomes public goods without exclusion. ***resource.
