In this way,situations such as the protection of natural resources, energy saving, environmental pollution occur. However, in order to recycle the packaging wastes properly, professional recycling methods should be done. It is obvious that there are serious natural resource savings as a result of the proper recycling of packaging wastes. In this study, the problems encountered in the collection of packaging wastes and their solutions are identified.
