The research deals with the quantification and commercialization of inorganic household waste during the pandemic in Barranca. The objective was to determine the benefit of commercialization in the quantification of inorganic residues. It is based on the descriptive method, for which the sample of 50 houses was established applying the Kunitoshi Sakurai method. The characteristics of the residues were evaluated, classified, quantified by day, month, utility and profitability were obtained. The results determined that in the classification of waste per month, paper and cardboard obtained 36.90%, per capita of inorganic waste stood out on Friday with 0.423 Kg/person/day, classification of waste per day highlighted glass materials with 40.43%, amount of inorganic waste in January obtained 1106.33 Kg/50 houses/month, amount of usable inorganic waste obtained 1032.08 kg/50 houses/month, valuation of usable inorganic waste with S/. 564 Soles and utility, profitability per month with S/. 264.00 Soles and 25.60%. It is concluded that in the pandemic, usable inorganic waste increased in January with 1032.08 kg/ 50 houses/month, obtaining greater utility with 264 soles, which is equivalent to 25.60% profitability, which shows that it is beneficial to generate work.
