Reverse Logistics is one of the means for sustainable waste management, reducing costs and environmental impacts, however, it faces significant challenges. The research used the seven barriers for the individual generator of organic waste, according to Teixeira et al. (2024), based on these barriers, data collection was carried out in the municipality of Marituba using a survey form. In the data analysis, the TOPSIS method was applied, where the barriers were ranked, analyzed and discussed. The results indicated that understanding and overcoming these barriers is essential to improve the effectiveness of waste management systems and promote sustainable practices. The research highlights the need for robust strategies and public policies to address these challenges and support the reverse logistics of organic waste in the region.
