The objectives of the study are to measure the efficiency and effectiveness of waste bank as an informal institution in waste reduction. The research was conducted in five waste banks located in Batu District, Batu City. Survey concerning waste bank performance was conducted for about 5 months. The questionnaires were distributed during the survey for effectiveness assessment, while in-depth interview was conducted on waste bank staffs for attaining waste bank characteristics. Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and Elasticity index were used to measure the waste banks’ effectiveness and efficiency respectively. The waste bank performance was determined by these two parameters. The results showed that all waste banks have low effectiveness indicated by the value of OEE lower than 60%. Meanwhile, the elasticity index varied among the waste banks from 0.57 to 2.74 representing low or high efficiency. Thus, the waste banks’ performance in Batu District was either low or moderate depending on the combination of the two above parameters.
