Solid Waste

The Tegucigalpa–Comayagüela municipal government removed 75 tons of accumulated garbage, bulky waste, and vegetation from the Motagua field and area under the Carías Bridge in a large-scale cleanup aimed at reclaiming public space, reducing contamination, and cutting flood risk during the rainy season.

Environment Minister Juan Carlos Ramos is pushing Congress to approve a solid-waste law that has cleared first debate, saying it would unlock international funding for sanitary landfills and improve trash collection across Honduras's 298 municipalities.
