In recent years, waste management policy has received increasing attention. In particular, consumer goods repair behavior, the focus of this paper, has influenced the waste management policy for durable goods. According to our definition of consumer goods repair behavior, consumers continue to keep, use and, if necessary, repair goods regardless of the cost. Consequently, consumer goods repair behavior can be an effective way for extending waste generation time. In this paper, we conduct a theoretical investigation of the durable goods market by characterizing the consumer goods repair behavior and consider waste management policy for product life extension. We demonstrate the existence of a market externality and consider repair subsidy policies and the creation of a market for durable products to internalize this externality. If creating durability is a feasible policy, the externality is fully internalized. However, we show that in cases where creating durability is an unfeasible policy, the repair subsidy can internalize the externality as a second best solution.
