Abstract

Through surveys, interviews and visits was obtained as a result that of Canton El Guabo there are no set schedules, defined routes and not enough trucks to cater to the demand for citizens and an open rubbish dump causing severe environmental pollution. In these circumstances, we saw the need to come up with a plan to improve transport and landfill of El Guabo, considering the following programs: set schedules, improve routes, buy three new collection trucks with collection capacity of 15.29 m3 , teach operators and citizens and start the study conducted in the year 2014 by AME ( Association of Ecuadorian Municipalities) so it takes immediate need to close the open rubbish dump, to mitigate the environmental impact.
