Abstract
Waste having a negative impact on public health, environment, and economy leading to an urgent need for moving to more sustainable solid waste management system. So, this paper gives an attempt for improving the existing solid waste management system of municipal corporations, using the Internet of Things (IOT). This paper approaches the building of an automatic trashcan, which will regularly update its status to the municipality so that the garbage will be cleaned earlier to the overflow stage. If the level reaches the threshold value, an automatic message will be sent to the municipality and the municipal worker who is nearest to the bin at that point of time. In addition, the trashcan will have an automatic waste separation system, which can separate the mixed municipal waste into certain categories like metal waste, dry and wet waste.
