This study analyzed rural villagers perception on household waste management system, especially two different volume-based waste charge systems such as charge-by-individual and charge-by-village. Five hundred and twenty nine rural residents of 9 provinces in South Korea were surveyed on their preferences for the household waste management system and the reasons. Frequency and cross tabulation analysis were applied to investigate the meaning of their answers. The result showed that the charge-byindividual was preferred to the charge-by-village and convenience was the most important reason for the household waste management system preference. The charge-by-village system was relatively less preferred, which implied that there might be many things to improve for the better system for rural areas. A new system based on the mixture of advantages of each system which is similar to the clean-house system of Jeju was suggested.
