The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) is implementing a new rubbish collection fee system starting October 2025 to encourage better waste separation.

        Households that separate their rubbish will receive a 20 baht reduction on their monthly charge. Conversely, residential properties that do not separate their rubbish will incur a 60 baht monthly penalty. Enroll today to receive your reduction by use the BKK rubbish PAY app, visit the website: bkkwastepay.bangkok.go.th., contact your local district office for assistance from cleaning and park maintenance authorities or waste collectors. Applications must include at least three pieces of evidence proving waste separation.
