Present in the process of reconfiguration of urban spaces in modernity, the production and accumulation of garbage becomes object of conduct governing in the context of population agglomerates. In Brazil, one effects of this problem culminates in the production of popular education’s practices as a mechanism of propagation of aseptic moral for the consolidation of sanitary awareness. Among the techniques for managing these deleterious residues there is Sanitary Education as a set of discourses and practices to construct aseptic conduct. This study aims to trace some alliances between Education and Health conducted by Brazilian social medicine during the first half of the twentieth century. With such, it aims to map some codes of conduct that have lasted until the present and reflect on urban life relations. There were used as a source of research some annals of health congresses, laws on urban cleaning and projects of remodeling the city.
