Solid waste is ordinary household and business rubbish that is taken to landfills or sorted. For years Mykolaiv has been trying to build a waste sorting line: the 2025 tender ended with searches at the city hall, and in July 2026 the only bidder in a new tender failed to score enough points. In September 2026 the head of the city's solid waste landfill was served with a notice of suspicion over a fire at the dump.
