Dari sortimen olahan balok dan papan sebanyak 30 m³, dihasilkan limbah sebanyak 46,73 %/m³ dengan rata-rata jenis limbah sebetan sebanyak 7,47 %/m³, serbuk 6,80 %/ m³ dan tatal 32,47 %/m³. Proses pengolahan lanjutan dari limbah masih belum terlihat dimana semua limbah biasanya hanya dibakar. Kata kunci: limbah gergajian, stand kayu, sortimen, tatal, serbuk Abstract This study works toward the quantity, type, volume, and composition of wood waste that have been produced by three wood sortiment-based sellers in West Manokwari sub-district of Manokwari. Descriptive method through survey technique and interview based on designed questionnaires were carried out in order to generate data which are emanating from three small-scales of wood sortiment-based producers namely Farrel Jaya, Hati Murni 2 dan Hati Murni 1.
