The paper presents results of the experiment focused on the establishment of cemetery waste weight changes in time depending on the way of collection. The cemetery waste samples were collected at the Brno Central Cemetery and at the Brno-Lisen Cemetery. The samples were stored in an open area and in closed containers (composteiners).Weight of the cemetery waste samples was measured at week intervals for seven months (the end of April - the end of November). The amount of rainfall was measured as well.During these seven months of the experiment the cemetery waste weight was reduced to almost 71 % on average of initial weight but the weight of the samples was stabilized after three months and further sample weight changes were only minor. The rainfall influence tothe waste weight was just temporary. ...
