Safai karamcharis collect garbage in trucks and take it to a landfill, a low-lying open area. Non-useful garbage components are separated out, spread over the landfill, and covered with soil. Once full, compost making areas are developed near the landfill to deal with some useful garbage components. The method of preparing compost with redworms is called vercomposting. Paper, plastic, metal and glass are recycled by cleaning, breaking down, and remolding into new objects. Recycling is important for a cleaner planet with less waste.
