Around 600 tonnes of waste, both wet and dry is generated in Thane on a daily basis.
Officials from the civic body stated that the increase in population and residential areas has resulted in an increase in the amount of garbage.

With the amount collected from the garbage tax, we can purchase the infrastructure for the Solid Waste Management department, said an official from Solid Waste Management department of TMC on condition of anonymity.
The corporation aims to earn Rs3.16 crore annually from the tax collected from every household on a monthly basis.
