Each year the sustainable development indicator on municipal waste is updated. Eurostat invites Member States to send their updates for the period 1996 to 2010.

The data collection from the Member States has changed both in content and in format. The questionnaire asks for information on the generation and treatment of municipal waste with separate breakdowns for recycling and composting.

For the transmission of the data the statistical standard tool eDAMIS is used; this is a web-based application which facilitates the data entry and transmission in a secure environment.
