Summary/Abstract: While the resources to meet consumer demands are in danger of exhaustion, packaging waste needs to be recycled for a sustainable world. It is aimed to collect the packaging waste from the 4 collection areas on the subject and to determine the packaging waste amounts to minimize the costs and minimize the costs of shipment to the Collection and Seperation Plant (TAT). For this purpose, then a linear programming model was formulated to minimize the costs occurred in the network of collection and delivery of packaging waste.The model was solved with LINDO 6.01 program. At the and of study: between the facility cost and the model cost a saving amount of TL 22.730 were found.
