The amount of waste generated is increasing in both quantity and complexity, in line with the level of economic development, but the land area available for solid waste treatment is limited. Residents' attitudes and willingness to pay (WTP) regarding waste segregation at source and recycling were investigated in this study through a survey using questionnaires conducted in the Hiep Hoa district, Bac Giang province. These findings indicate that local people have a high level of environmental awareness. About 92.4 % of the respondents were satisfied with the current state of the environment and domestic solid waste management. The survey data showed a positive attitude toward segregating waste at the source in the Hiep Hoa district, with the majority of respondents (95.7 %) preferring to segregate their waste at home if required by the local government. More than half of the respondents (57.2 %) provided positive answers to WTP-related questions. The survey results confirmed the hypothesis that the probability of respondents saying 'yes' to the WTP question increases with education level, age, and bid, using logistic regression analysis. The average WTP was 53,440 VND/household/month. The findings of this study provide information on residents' awareness and WTP levels for solid waste management, which can be used by local governments to develop waste management solutions and promote sustainable household waste management by improving waste segregation at source and recycling.
