Inadequate management of household waste is a challenge in terms of public health and environmental protection. A management system based on solid waste methods is proposed as a solution to improve household waste management in Cuñumbuqui, Peru. A descriptive-propositive research was carried out with a sample of 29 employees who responded to a validated questionnaire to diagnose the problematic situation. Among the results, 59% of the collaborators considered that the management of household waste is bad, 34% mentioned that it is regular and only 7% expressed that it is good; and in relation to solid waste management, 14% indicated that it is good, 79% regular and only 7% expressed that it is bad; that is, that storage, transfer and transport, collection, recovery and final disposal are carried out regularly. It is concluded that the proposal is valid by the experts' judgment and presents characteristics of ecological integrality, interculturality and local articulation, which will help individuals to manage household waste in a responsible and adequate manner.
