Waste management in Batu Bara Regency faces challenges in realizing the concept of zero waste. This research aims to analyze the existing conditions of waste management, identify obstacles and challenges, and formulate a zero waste-based landfill development planning strategy. The methods used were literature studies and interviews with relevant stakeholders. The results of the study show that limited infrastructure, funding, and regulation are the main obstacles. However, with a community-based approach, eco-friendly technology, and multi-stakeholder collaboration, the potential to reduce the volume of waste entering landfills can be achieved. The recommendations given include improving infrastructure, educating the public, strengthening regulations, diversifying funding, and cross-sector collaboration.
