Abstract: This document provides a comprehensive review of the municipal solid waste management in the municipality of Villaflores, Chiapas, specifically the municipal seat and nearby towns. The main waste management problems were identified. Derived from the study, it was found that currently 0.707 kg/per capita day of solid waste are generated, equivalent to 59 tons/day, which are handled with limited equipment and personnel, leading to difficulties, specifically as regards final disposal. It was found that, despite the limited number and inferior characteristics of the existing collection vehicles, waste collection is moderately efficient (78%). Final disposal shows serious deficiencies, such as ruptures of cell geotextile liners, clogging of rainwater drain channel, neglected leachate evaporation pond, among others. To improve solid waste management at municipal level, the Department of Public Services in conjunction with the legal areas of the municipal council, and other external factors, such as academia and civil society organizations, should promote awareness strategies and waste separation at the source.
