The growing production of solid waste is proportional to the advance of globalization and urban expansion. Many cities find it difficult to manage urban solid waste (MSW), concerning its operationalization and evaluation, due to the few informations about its main sources. Therefore, the present study used a matrix of indicators developed by Ramos (2013) to analyze the sustainability of MSW management in the city of Tucuruí-PA through the Solid Waste Management Quality Index (IQGRS). Using the Delphi Method, questionnaires were applied to specialists in the environmental research field and the company responsible for waste collection and management services. As a matter of fact the IQGRS found characterized the city management as unfavorable in terms of sustainability according to a study by Santiago and Dias (2012).
