For local administrations, the collection and transport of solid wastes has the highest share in cost. Therefore, good management of these processes is of great importance in terms of cost, environment and time. Otherwise, significant problems arise in terms of excessive fuel consumption, waste of time, depreciation expense, environment and public health. In this context, this study includes the examination of the issues mentioned in the municipality of Suruç (Şanlıurfa). At the end of the study, data sets related to road network about collection system, demographic structure and solid waste amounts were formed. With the help of these data, GIS-based route and route optimization was performed to determine the optimum route for each neighborhood in solid waste collection and transportation operations. spatial solid waste distribution maps were extracted and the cost-benefit relationship was evaluated.
