The ever-increasing urban population has had a significant impact on the devel-opment of sanitation in terms of management. The uncontrolled growth rates of garbage piles in public places pollutes the surrounding air and land area. It may inflame various severe syndromes amongst the nearby people. To avoid this and to improve tidiness, a "smart trash can" system has been developed. The system is modelled in such a way that the level of garbage in the dustbins is identified with the help of sensor systems and transferred to the mobile phone through Bluetooth. Arduino Uno development board is used to interface the sensor system with the Bluetooth system. The garbage status is collected by the sensory system and main¬tained in a database for monitoring the dustbin in the designated location. The collected status signals are channeled to the intended mobile device via Bluetooth link. This provides easy access to the status information on the level of garbage in the bin and helps in managing the garbage efficiently.
