Nghia My is a purely agricultural commune. Recently, trading and service activities in the area have developed quite a lot, leading to an increase in the amount of waste. It is estimated that the average amount of waste in the whole commune is about 1.5 tons per day. In previous years, because the locality has not organized waste collection, there is no place to collect waste, combined with the limited awareness of the people about the environment, waste is thrown indiscriminately in residential areas, canals, causing environmental pollution, affecting people's health and spoiling the beauty of the village.

Faced with that situation, in 2012, the Commune People's Committee actively implemented waste collection to ensure environmental sanitation in the area, contributing to the construction of new rural areas. The 30th Commune Party Congress, term 2015-2020, included in the Resolution the environmental sanitation criteria with the rate of households having waste collected over 88%.

Immediately after the Congress, the Project was quickly developed, in which the main policy was to build community-based waste collection and treatment models. The goal of this model is to promote socialization and raise people's awareness in waste collection and classification.

Nghia My Agricultural Cooperative is the leading unit in implementing waste collection in the area. The Cooperative has established a waste collection team operating in 14 hamlets, Lui market, along Highway 48. According to the plan, every 3 days, the team is responsible for collecting all domestic and production waste in the hamlet and gathering it to the designated location for transportation. Up to now, the whole commune has installed nearly 70 trash bins and 1 garbage truck.

Comrade Cao Thi Huong - Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee, Chairman of the People's Committee of Nghia My Commune said: "In addition to establishing a waste collection team, we also built a model of "5 no, 3 clean" of the Women's Union; at the same time, mobilized people to clean up on Saturdays on inter-hamlet and inter-commune roads. Thanks to that, people's awareness of environmental sanitation has been raised."

As the first commune in Thai Hoa Town to meet the new rural standards, waste collection is very practical in ensuring environmental sanitation in the locality. The work of collecting and treating waste in Nghia My has shown that the leadership of the Party Committee, the government and the cooperation of the people have contributed to completing the targets of the Resolution of the Commune Party Congress and improving environmental sanitation criteria in the construction of new rural areas in the locality.
