Solid waste management is an important and essential works for any country. Solid waste management is also one of the tough, complexes, time consuming and laborious work for urban areas of the world. However the present study has conducted to assess briefly the solid waste management in developing and developed countries of the world. The study was documentary analysis type. Data and information were collected from secondary sources such as books, research, report, journals, Thesis, annual report, magazines, websites, internet etc. From the study it was found that in rural areas solid waste are dumped into their own land areas but in case of urban areas it is difficult. In urban areas solid wastes are managed by Pourashava or city corporation authorities. In developed countries, solid wastes are managed by adopting different latest vehicles, instruments machineries and technologies. For this reason solid waste management is carried out properly. So, citizens of developed countries have no headache for solid waste management. In developed countries solid wastes are recycled and again used. Some developed countries (example: Sweden) earn a lot of foreign currency by exporting recycled solid wastes. On the other hand, poor countries, least developed are not able to manage solid waste properly. For this reason the citizens of the poor and least developed countries suffer a lot. For better management of solid waste, Bangladesh and other developed countries should follow the techniques which are adopted by developed countries of the world. Bangladesh and other developed countries should visit the developed countries to get ideas how the developed countries are managing their solid wastes.
