Today, waste is a raw material and energy source that can be recovered. The economic value of waste results in forming informal groups of pickers appropriating material waste in developing countries. These types of situations are analysed in the literature. Using Ostrom's social-ecological system analytical framework (SES), the authors show that municipal waste in developing countries can be treated as a common good (CPR). This paper aims to answer whether municipal waste in developed countries can be treated this way, although informal collectors' activities are marginal here. The analysis also uses the analytical scheme of Ostrom’s SES. However, due to the different organisa-tions of the waste management system in developed countries, the individual elements of the scheme were defined differently than in the literature. This resulted in a different schema of municipal waste as a common good. This approach allows the schema to be applied locally and broadly to all types of municipal waste, not just material waste.

Współcześnie odpady są źródłem zasobów surowcowych i energetycznych, które mogą być odzyskane. Ta ekonomiczna wartość odpadów powoduje, że w krajach rozwijających się, tworzą się nieformalne grupy zbieraczy przywłaszczających odpady surowcowe. Tego rodzaju sytuacje są opisywane w literaturze. Stosując ramy analityczne SES Ostrom, autorzy wskazują, że odpady komunalne w krajach rozwijających się mogą być traktowane jak dobro wspólne (CPR).Celem tego artykułu jest odpowiedź na pytanie czy również odpady komunalne w krajach rozwiniętych, mogą być tak traktowane, choć tutaj działania nieformalnych zbieraczy są marginalne. W analizie również zastosowano schemat analityczny SES Ostrom. Jednak ze względu na inną organizację systemu gospodarki odpadami w krajach rozwiniętych, inaczej niż w literaturze, określono poszczególne elementy schematu. Dzięki temu powstał inny schemat odpadów komunalnych jako dóbr wspólnych. Takie podejście pozwala na zastosowanie tego schematu zarówno w skali lokalnej, jak i szerszej oraz w odniesieniu do wszystkich rodzajów odpadów komunalnych, a nie tylko materiałowych.
