Waste can be broadly classified in to wet waste and dry waste for better segregation at source and appropriate waste management.

Ideally, Paper waste is included in Dry Waste since it can be recycled again into paper and paper based products.

In the event, paper waste is contaminated with food waste, oil waste or other organic contaminants, it can may be included in wet waste.
