The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of environmental literacy through waste banks and to analyze the potential of waste banks in improving environmental quality in Hatu Country. However, this needs to be studied further in accordance with the context of the character of the community in each region. The waste bank has had a significant impact on environmental change and the improvement of the community's economy. The waste bank that was established was an implementation of environmental literacy to the community in Hatu Country. The absence of waste management facilities in this area was reinforced by the lack of public awareness about environmental cleanliness which triggered the idea of establishing a waste bank by the manager of the Hasoma smart home. Negeri Hatu is located far from the city center and the center of the Maluku Tengah regency government, resulting in no reach of waste management services from the local DLH.
