Abstract: As people are getting smarter, so are the things. While the thought comes up for Smart cities. there is a requirement for Smart waste management. It is a common sight to witness garbage spilled out in and around the dustbins. The area around an improperly maintained dust bins can house disease spreading insects like mosquitoes, flies, bees and driver ants. The environment around a dustbin is also conducive for increasing the pollution level in air. Air pollution due to a dustbin can produce bacteria and virus which can produce life threatening diseases in human beings. The idea of Smart Dustbin is for the Smart buildings, Colleges, Hospitals and Bus stands. The Smart Dustbin thus thought is an improvement of normal dustbin by elevating it to be smart using sensors and logics. For Smart dustbin operation we are using ultrasonic sensor for detecting distance and object and another sensor servomotor is used for opening and closing the dustbin top and we are also using PIR sensor which is used for calculating the level of dustbin and also we are using led which glows showing the level of dustbin upto which it is filled.
