The focus of the study is to know the perceptions of customers and<br />

organizations on the effectiveness of solid waste management at Kuantan<br />

Port. In order to fulfill the objective of the study, questionnaire forms are<br />

distributed to respondents among customer and organization in Kuantan Port<br />

to obtain the required information. The findings are then processed using the<br />

Statistical Package For Social Sciences (SPSS) system. This study aims to<br />

identify organizational and customer perceptions on solid waste management<br />

in the Kuantan Port area and to learn about the implemented systems that<br />

involve the collection and disposal of solid waste, which can be applied<br />

elsewhere. From the results obtained, we can come up with recommendation<br />

such as providing nearby solid waste collection points, enforcement of waste<br />

management rules and regulation with higher penalties on offenders, creating<br />

solid waste recycle center, effective monitoring of waste contractors, provision<br />

of more waste evacuation equipment, provision of more solid waste dump<br />

sites and effective monitoring of monthly clean-up activities.<br />
