The legislation of municipal solid waste classification has experienced the stage from the awakening of consciousness to the establishment of the legal system，and its idea of development has shifted from resource conservation to environment protection. Since the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development issued the ‘Notice on Accelerating the Classification of Domestic Waste in Some Key Cities’ in 2017，46 key cities have been required to issue relevant implementation plans or guidance on the classification and management of domestic waste. Local legislation has sprung up，and the period from 2018 to 2020 can be called the “legislative period”. Local legislation on the classification of municipal solid waste occupies the main part of the entire legal system. Through the analysis of local legislation，it can be found that in the local legislation，there are still some problems such as inadequate legislative system，unreasonable setting of related supporting systems，and tough and monotonous governance methods of government.
