Since 2020, the garbage classification system has been implemented throughout the country, and charging has become one of the important means to promote classification in various places. The charge standard of domestic waste in Xi City is 6 yuan, which is set according to the government guidance price. Each household will be charged a monthly fee of 4 yuan for basic living garbage, and the excess will be charged according to the quantity. The specific charging method is: the first 40 liters of garbage per household per month is free, and the excess is charged at the price of 0.3 yuan/liter. For example, if a family produces 60 liters of garbage a month, it needs to pay the clearing fee of 12 yuan (4+20x0.3). In addition, for those communities that have performed well in garbage sorting, Xi has also introduced an ecological compensation policy. For example, if a community effectively classifies recyclable waste, harmful waste and wet waste, then the community can get corresponding subsidies. The specific subsidy standards shall be formulated by the district and street community comprehensive coordination agencies according to local conditions. It should be noted that if you don't pay the garbage fee on time, you may face penalties such as fines. At the same time, if there are special circumstances such as large pieces of garbage that need to be removed, you need to bear the extra expenses yourself.
How does Xi 'an's domestic waste charging standard compare with other cities? The standard of garbage charge in each city is different, which is mainly related to the local garbage disposal cost and governance objectives. In the whole country, the cost of garbage disposal is generally between 4-8 yuan/household, so the charging standard of Xi 'an and 6 yuan is above average. However, it should be noted that there may be differences in the specific provisions of garbage classification and charging standards in different places, and it is necessary to specifically ask local policies.
Xi's implementation of garbage classification and charging system is an important measure to promote environmental protection and a powerful means to advocate low-carbon life. As residents, we should actively participate in garbage sorting and disposal, and work together to build a beautiful living environment.
