In 2023, the waste management situation in Sukoharjo showed a combination of achievements and difficulties. Out of the 12 Temporary Waste Disposal Sites with 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) facilities, only 4, including Temporary Waste Disposal Sites with 3R (Temporary Waste Disposal Sites 3R) Anugrah Palur, were functioning at their best. This study examines the factors that impact the establishment and long-term viability of these facilities, employing a combination of research methods that incorporates RAP-Temporary Waste Disposal Sites 3R analysis, partial least squares (SEM-PLS), observations, and interviews. The results emphasize that attitude is the most influential component in supporting the growth of Temporary Waste Disposal Sites with 3R, as indicated by a p-value of 0.000. On the other hand, knowledge (0.052) and behavior (0.279) are identified as the least important aspects that hinder development. The Temporary Waste Disposal Sites with 3R have an overall sustainability rating of 72.79, which classifies them as ‘very sustainable.’ The environmental component achieved a score of 79.54, the social dimension scored 72.88, the management and infrastructure dimension scored 71.30, and the economic dimension scored 65.44. These findings emphasize the crucial importance of community attitudes in promoting sustainable waste management practices. They also highlight specific areas that can be improved to enhance the effectiveness and sustainability of Temporary Waste Disposal Sites with 3R facilities.
