The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the current status of solid waste management practices in stone and marble industry (SMI) facilities in Palestine.  questionnaires have been employed to gather needed data from a randomly selected sample of Palestinian SMI faculties. Such data include facilities’ demographics, infrastructure and production inputs, solid and liquid waste estimated quantities, and current waste management practice.  It was found that surveyed respondents from SMI facilities are highly aware of the importance of waste management and are willing to apply effective waste management practices in their facilities.
A set of practical recommendations have been presented to help different stakeholders in the SMI in employing more effective waste management practices in their facilities .
