In Bengaluru, walking-tour curator Arun Pai addresses the growing problem of bulky waste like sofas and mattresses that block footpaths because they are too large for standard trash compactors. He demonstrated a simple dismantling process where items are broken down into wood, foam, and metal in just 10–15 minutes. This reduces waste volume, allows for recycling, and clears city streets, proving that ward-level teams can efficiently declutter neighbourhoods.
