Centro de Transferencia de Residuos Sólidos de la Municipalidad de Pérez Zeledón.

This location is the only federal compost in country. However, their main purpose is to serve as a transfer station so trucks won’t have to drive all around the country to landfills and instead can be collected more efficiently. The compost rarely is sold and instead is given away to organizations and schools who need rich soil. It also seems as though this service doesn’t cost more for citizens and is efficient through using bacteria to break down organic materials. However, they are hampered in a lot of ways due to lack of money. They would have a better machine to separate organics and plastics if they had the money to buy a new machine. Waste management is seen as an after effect which is given little attention.
