The paper describes the results of studies on the content and accumulation of heavy metals: lead, cadmium, zinc and copper. Heavy metals were determined in soil and plants growing in the field collection and temporary storage of solid waste in a number of areas of the city of Yoshkar-Ola. It is noted that the soil adjacent to the container site, accumulate high levels of lead, zinc and copper. The different areas of the city are characterized by uneven heavy metal content. The highest level of heavy metals found in the soil Gomzovo neighborhood. Herbaceous plants with shallow root system actively absorb heavy metals from the soil. On species specificity of heavy metal accumulation bodies plantain, chamomile and sweet-smelling Knotweed. It is noted that almost all the underground organs of plants (roots) to accumulate large amounts of heavy metals compared with leaves. Confirmation is the absorption coefficient.
