The recycling process is one of the most viable practices when it comes to the correct disposal of solid waste, in which in this process the collectors are primarily responsible for the collection. The study aimed to outline the socioeconomic profile of recyclable solid waste collectors in the municipality of Corrente - PI. For evaluation, a questionnaire was used as a research instrument, which was applied to 10 collectors. Among these collectors, the majority presented an age group between 30 and 50 years. As for the monthly income obtained from collection, about 33.33% of the collectors earn between R$1,300.00 and R$1,400.00 and 16.67% earn an average of R$1,500.00 monthly, and the who receive less presented a percentage of 33.33%. With this, it is concluded that it is extremely important to remove these collectors from the final disposal area, a fact that is a prerogative of the National Solid Waste Policy (PNRS).
