Final Report

1. Introduction
The Consultants conducted a survey of Metro Manilas junkshops to assess the current situation in terms of
the impact on the recycling efforts of the government and non-government sector in compliance with the
Republic Act 9003, better known as the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000. The following
information derived from the survey will assist in determining future programs of the government, in particular
the National Solid Waste Management Commission (NSWMC).

2. Objective
The objective of the survey was to determine the impact of junkshop operations on the recycling programs as
required in RA 9003. Specifically the survey attempted to determine the following:
a. Purchasing mechanisms
b. Capacities of the junkshops
c. Types of building structure
d. Environmental management practices

3. Methodology
The implementation and methodology of the survey were discussed during the Technical Working Group
Meeting held on April 1, 2003. The fieldwork commenced on April 2, 2003.
The survey was conducted in the eight (8) cities and municipalities of Metro Manila who are beneficiaries of
the technical assistance of ADB TA-3848. These comprise Manila, Makati, Quezon City, Muntinlupa, Pasig,
Malabon, Navotas, and Valenzuela. Specifically targeted and random sampling was adopted to determine the
number of junkshop participants. Seven questionnaires were distributed to each city for a total of 56
participants or 15% of the total 366 junkshops in the study area. The target respondents were selected at
random. The survey covered 60% of the large junkshops and 40% of the small junkshops. Forty (40)
junkshops owners responded to the survey. The participants were given the questionnaire (Annex 1) to
complete. The LGU SWM Staff and Consultants Team jointly administered the survey. Selected interviews
were also conducted with some of the questionnaire participants.

3.1 Results of the Survey

The results of the survey illustrate that not all recyclable materials are accepted and bought by the junkshops.
Those materials accepted include broken coloured bottles, magazines, and cartridges of computers.
Junkshops have their own preference of the recyclables they want to purchase. There are several junkshops
organizations that have a major impact on the materials that are collected, these are:
Linis Ganda organized by Narda Camacho (572 members)
K- JOM (Kapisanan ng Junkshop Owners ng Makati,)
PLJA (Payatas Litex Junkshop Association

Junk Shop Survey Report 5b

ADB TA 3848 PHI: Metro Manila Solid Waste Management Project

Final Report

Prices offered by these organizations are very competitive but Linis Ganda has a uniform pricing schedule
issued to all its members but which is not always followed by them. Some members of the Linis Ganda have
higher purchase prices to compete with the higher buying price of the other organizations. (see Annex 2 for a
price list of Linis Ganda). Prices at the recycling plants are approximately 20-30% higher than the prices at
the junkshops.
3.1.1 General Description of the Junkshops
The building structures of the junkshops surveyed are classified as concrete (permanent) and light
(temporary). Out of the 40 junkshops, 13 junkshops (32%) are constructed of concrete materials and 23 (58%)
are constructed from light materials. Four of the participants did not answer the questions on type of structure.
The general area of the permanent structure ranges from 20-sq. m. to 1,000-sq. m. and, the light ranges from
10 to 3,430 sq. m.
The owners indicated that junkshops could be operated and managed with a capitalization as low as P
3,000.00 to as high as P 200,000.00. See Annex 3, Table 1.
3.1.2 Plastics
Plastics are classified into HDPE (high density polyethylene), PET (polyethylene terephthalate), LDPE (low
density polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), and HIPS (high-impact polystyrene). Of the 40 junkshops that
participated in the survey, 28 junkshops (70%) are accepting plastic materials that are classified as HDPE, 24
(60%) for PET, 12 (30%) for LDPE, 9 (22%) for PP, and 13 (32%) for HIPS. HDPE includes waste materials
marked as recycle mark number 2 generated from products like shampoo, cosmetics, motor oil containers,
toothpaste tubes, sand bags, soap dishes, ice cream containers, pallets, food industry crates and food
industry trays. The PETs come from products like mineral water bottles, cosmetic bottles and soft drinks which
are recycle mark number 1. LDPE, which is mark number 4, consists of clear plastic bags, crop protection
sheets, ice cream container lids and computer covers. PPs are recycle mark number 5, consisting of waste
baskets, water basins, car bumpers, egg trays, alcohol bottle caps, cosmetic bottle caps, shampoo bottle
caps, soft drink bottle caps and toothpaste tube caps. HIPS include disposable drinking cups and disposable
spoons, forks, and knives that are recycle mark number 6.
The members of Metro Plastic Association Inc. (MPRAI) buy the plastic recyclables from the junkshops.
MPRAI is registered as a non-stock and non-profit corporation under Philippine Law. Currently, the association
has 13 members with an aggregate capacity to process plastics of at least 6,000 metric tons of wastes every
month. The MPRAI has forged a waste exchange program with Metro Manila Linis Ganda, and a
memorandum of agreement with Metro Manila Federation of Environment Multipurpose Cooperative and the
Zero Basura (Garbage) Philippines Movement to assist the government in establishing material recovery
facility (MRF), reuse and recover recyclables from the waste stream.
The prices of plastics range from P1.00 to P7.00 per kilogram. The average quantity of plastics bought per
month by junkshop is 1,700 kgs. HDPE has the highest weight bought between 100 to 6,000 kgs /month, with
an average price of P5.00. See Annex 3, Table 2.
3.1.3 Glass
Glass is generally classified into two groups: the first group includes glass and bottles bought in whole while
the second group consists of broken glass and bottles. Whole empty glass and bottles of soft drinks and
wines are bought at between P 0.50 and P1.50 per bottle while medicine and food bottles are priced at ranges
from P 0.10 to P 0.20 per piece. Broken glass is further sub-divided into coloured broken bottles and white
broken bottles. The price of broken coloured bottles is between P 0.10 to P 0.20 for every kilogram. White
broken bottles are bought at P 0.50 to P1.00 per kilogram. See Tables 3 and 4.

Final Report

Buyers of both whole and broken bottles are San Miguel Corporation, located in Manila, Pacific Glass
Company, in Mandaluyong; and Republic Glass, in Pasig.
3.1.4 Metals
Metals are grouped into aluminium, scrap metals, copper, alloys, brass fender, washers, GI sheets and zinc.
Copper commands the highest price among the metals recycled at P70.00 per kilo. Aluminium, brass and
alloys are bought within a range of P 30.00 to P 45.00 per kilo. Prices of scrap metals at P1.00 to P4.50 per
kilo, GI sheets at P 0.25 to P1.00 per kilo, washers at P8.00 per kilo, and zinc at P 8.00 to 15.00 per kilo.

Tin cans and GI sheets
Metalwealth
Milwaukee Corporation

Quezon City
Valenzuela

Aluminium Foil
Reynolds Aluminium

Makati

See Annex 3 Tables 5 and 6 for more details.

3.1.5 Paper
Paper is categorized into assorted paper, newspaper, cardboard, magazine and office paper. In terms of the
prices of the paper, this varies from P0.30 to P 5.50 with newspaper receiving the highest price and assorted
paper the lowest price. Most of the junkshops surveyed accept assorted paper because it is cheaper to buy.
Every month an average of 2,500 kilos of assorted paper is bought by the junkshops. See Annex 3 Table 7
Buyers of recycled paper include the following:
Aclem
United Pulp
Container Corporation
Globe Paper
Worldwide
Bataan Paper
PICOP
Trust International Paper Corp.

- Manila
- Makati
- Caloocan
- Malabon

3.1.6 Computer Cartridges

Only a few junkshops receive cartridges of computers. Their prices range from P3.00 to P15.00 per kilogram.
See Annex 3 Table 8.
3.1.7 Batteries
Only the batteries of motor vehicles are accepted and bought by the junkshops. There are several types of
batteries namely: 1SNF, 1SMF, 2SM, 3SM, 6SM, 2D, 4D, and 8D. Each type of battery has a different pricing.
2SM is the most common battery purchased by the junkshops with price ranging from P50.00 to P70.00.

3.2 Environmental Management Practices

All junkshops owners practice segregation with recyclables separated by type of material manually. They are
stockpiled in segregated stocking areas. To prevent flies and other insects from coming into the area, bottles
and glasses are washed before being stored in designated areas. Posters on safety, such as emergency in
case fire are displayed on the walls. Proper handling of the recyclables such as providing sturdy containers
for bottles, and metals, packaging and bundling are not practiced in most junkshops. It is a general
observation that there is an overload of recyclables materials in the junkshops. Inventory of recyclable
materials is large and many of them have been left in the storeroom for a considerable time. The use of light
material to construct a storage area is not a good practice because it is a fire hazard, but it is practiced. See
Annex 3 Table 10.
Most of the survey respondents answered that they practice segregation, proper arrangement of materials,
and display of safety procedures as part of the undertaking signed in their application for a permit to operate.
Also, it was observed that operation and management usually seemed in order. But as previously indicated,
there is over capacities and recyclable materials are often stockpiled outside the building on the sidewalk.
Glasses are washed but often drainage is not provided for the wastewater or a septic tank to treat any
wastewater. This is the situation on most of the registered junkshops. On junkshops located at the dumpsite or
along the route the dumpsite, the situation is worst: no sanitation; no safety measures; no sturdy structures,
etc.

4. Related Issues on Junkshops Operation

4.1 Non-involvement of the Solid Waste Management Unit (SWMU) in the
Approval Process of Junkshops Permits/ Licenses
The operation of junkshops is primarily under the control of the lgus by virtue of republic act 7160, commonly
known as the local government code. The issuance of permits and licenses is vested with the business
permits and licensing office (bplo) of every municipality and city. During the application process for a business
permit, the bplo requires the proponent or owner to sign an undertaking that: the junkshop operation shall not
be the subject of complaints in the neighbourhood, that it is not obstructive to traffic flow, that it shall not
encroach the right of way, and shall have good sanitation. The proponent must secure a locational or site
clearance order from the local planning office. The planning office checks for compliance with the land use
plan or with the zoning ordinance. The swmu is not involved in the processing of permits that should look into
other requirements such as storage capacities, facilities, operational procedures, safety, environmental
impacts, and others.
Among the eight LGUs surveyed, only Pasig and Muntinlupa have their SWMUs involved in the processing of
permits. Pasig CENRO evaluates the application for a permit based on the result of the ocular inspection and
considers cleanliness and environmental housekeeping as the criteria for issuance of the permit. It also
monitors the junkshop operation every quarter. A NOV (Notice of Violation) is given to a violator of the
undertaking or if a complaint is filed in the office, a task force is created and public hearings are held.
Reprimand is the minimum sanction to closure or relocation of the junkshop as its maximum sanction.
Surprisingly, the SWMUs of big cities like Manila, Quezon City, and Makati, do not have responsibilities,
participation or role in junkshops operation in terms of regulation and control. See table below.

Final Report

4.2 Unregistered Junkshops

There are many junkshops that are not registered in the LGU. These junkshops are those that are located
along the route, near or inside the dumpsites. They are managed by small entrepreneurs usually by a family,
or sometimes by middlemen of factory owners. Some are managed by barangay or local officials as reported
by residents in the dumpsite area.
Along the route to Payatas dumpsite, junkshops have proliferated. According to the Operation Manager of
Payatas Dumpsite, the inventory of recyclable materials of the junkshops near and inside the dumpsite is
close to one million pesos. About 2,000 scavengers sell their recovered materials to these junkshops. The
inventory is kept in open areas of the junkyard and sold to middlemen of factory owners.
The situation is also true in Manila, where unregistered junkshops are situated along R-10 road leading to the
transfer station at Pier 18.
In May 1995, Smokey Mountain, the famous garbage mountain in Tondo, Manila was officially closed by then
President Fidel V. Ramos. In May 1999, the City of Manila opened a transfer station at Pier 18 near Smokey
Mountain. This paved the way for the return of the scavenging activities in the transfer station and there is now
a proliferation of these activities once again.

4.3 Lack of Standard Regulation on the Operation

In a similar vein to the non-involvement of the SWMU in the issuance of permit to operate, is the lack of
standard regulation on how the junkshops should be run or operated. LGUs do not have standards regulation
on structural, environmental, safety, and other impacts of junkshop operation. Approval on the business is
mainly based on undertaking agreements with the proponents. There are national regulations that exist such
as: National Building Code, Code on Sanitation (PD 856), Structural Code, Fire Code, etc. but these are
seldom imposed and implemented at city and municipal levels. As required by law, the National Building Code
should be implemented by the Building Official of the LGUs.

4.4 Other Illegal Practices

Employment of minors should have the permission of the Department of Labour and Employment (DOLE).
However, child labour is rampant in almost all sectors due to the prevailing poor economic condition of the
country. Scavenging draws people of all ages. In junkshops child labour also exists with them employed by the
owners to reduce their operating cost.
Employees of both registered and non-registered junkshops are not given standard wages. They receive
salaries below the minimum requirements of the law or they receive allowances on a daily or monthly basis.
They are not paid their SSS, 13th month pay, medical insurance and other benefits enjoyed by regular
employees.
Regulations and control of hazardous waste is under the responsibility of the LGUs as specified in RA 6969. If
hazardous waste finds its way to the junkshop they are reported by the owner to the concerned LGU and
subsequently to the DENR for proper handling and disposal. Most often this is violated, a number of junkshops
operators try to handle hazardous waste with their own men, cleaning or removing the contents to recycle the
containers or, in the case metal containers, make scrap out of them. This practice has sometimes led to
contamination, pollution or accidents in the area.
On January 2003, four acetylene tanks blew up in a junkshop in Sta. Ana, Manila, five persons were injured
and houses destroyed. The cause of the accident was traced to a labourer who lit a cigarette near a leaking
acetylene tank stored within a junkshop. The firewall and steel gate absorbed the brunt of the explosion. The
neighbourhood petitioned for the removal of the junkshop after the incident.

Final Report

5. Recommendation
In view of the results of the survey of junkshops in the area, the following recommendations are made:

Local government should impose minimum building standards for junkshops.

Stricter imposition of laws or regulations on sanitation, health and safety should be carried out.

Besides segregation at source, a secondary sorting at the MRF is necessary, thus construction
and operation of a MRF in the barangay or cluster of barangays should be encouraged.

Separate washing areas should be provided for junkshops receiving glass and bottles,.

All junkshops must be registered at the local government unit for the purpose of control and
monitoring.

Junkshops should be equipped with fire extinguishers and first aid kits in case of emergencies.

Financial assistance for the improvement or expansion of junkshops must be explored.
