This paper presents a theoretical method to estimate the effects of a volume based collection fee implemented by municipal governments on reducing household waste. Most households try to avoid excess purchasing of food products, as this practice is a cause of waste and is also uneconomical. Due to a lack of planning, however, household purchasing practices tend to be ambiguous. The introductiion of a waste collection fee would change the approach of households to such purchasing practices. An entropy model, based on information theory, is applied to describe this situation.
