The major focus has been made on presenting hierarchy, as a concept, to promote waste avoidance ahead of recycling and disposal. In particular, the 6R, such as reconsider, reuse, reduce, recycle, recover, and retain, have been well explained in the relationship of their physical, social, and economic relationships through the medium of established theories and practices available in the literature. Along with, waste control policies of different countries have also been discussed as case studies.
