In this paper we have developed a low cost, low power waste management system which will be applicable in regions which are not economically sound. This system enables us to collect the trash as and when the can is full or when the trash inside is decomposed compared to daily collection. This has been designed using an Arduino Uno board incorporating additional modules such as a GSM module to send messages. © 2017 IEEE.
