This study was conducted in order to understand the influence of the concept of urban metabolism (MU) in the strategies used for solid waste management in two cities in the metropolitan region of a northeastern Brazil capital. The methodology used was a qualitative nature, by means of four individual interviews conducted in-depth analysis of content. In analyzing the results, it was found that the influence of the concept of MU the strategies used for the management of solid waste in the cities studied is minimal or absent, since the public officials involved are unrelated, or know little about the concept study, demonstrating therefore a reductionist view of solid waste management. Thus, they limit their practices to the collection service and final disposal of solid waste.
