The purpose of the article is to determine the problems of waste accumulation and ways to solve them. Soil, air and water pollution poses a risk to sustainable development worldwide. Waste disposal problems are exacerbated by changes in the structure of consumption, industrial development and urbanization. The main problem is the slow innovative development, the reasons for which are the predominance of raw materials in exports, low level of investments, outdated technologies, corruption, etc. Many developing countries are faced with the problem of improving waste management. An appropriate waste management policy reduces the negative impact of waste on the environment. It was established that there is a constant increase in the cost of collection process, utilization and removal of waste. Proposed measures and basic methods of waste management aimed at achieving environmentally safe waste management. Ways of implementing the closed loop model can be measures such as focusing on the sphere of services, encouraging capital investments, spreading the culture of circularity, training specialists, developing markets for secondary raw materials, adopting and implementing the circular economy indicator system, etc.
