Hanoi URENCO is currently operating 3 construction waste transfer stations in main 4 Districts of Hanoi.
During our 15 minutes stay in one transfer station of Hai Ba Trung District, 2 handbarrows and 1 motorbike came to bring about 6 construction waste bags respectively.
However, these transfer stations in Hanoi seem to disappear in the near future due to increase of urbanization.
