Garbage is always produced every day, including household trash and many kind of waste. IoT based Trash Can Monitoring System was designed to automatically maintain the garden cleanliness and help to ease the cleaning staff work. This system uses two controlled trash bins with different location identity (ID). There are many devices to build this system, such as NodeMCU microcontroller, Thingspeak as an IoT platform, two ultrasonic sensors to detect the height of trash and approached object, two servo motors to control can cover and disposal outlet, and solenoid as a locking part. The results of this work show that the system designed works well. Location ID of the two trash cans, approached object detection, measurement of garbage height inside the trash can, opening and locking of disposal outlet and cover, work with 100% success rate and all data can be sent to Thingspeak without any error.
