Smart Garbage Management System using IOT

Swacch Bharat Abhiyan started by honorable prime minister of India in 2014 to develop citizen friendly and sustainable smart cities across the country. As India alone produces approx.1lakh metric tons of solid waste per day which is much higher than produced by many of the other countries. There are times when these trash cans get over-flown contaminating surroundings. Current procedures to empty and clean these trash cans are sometimes inefficient and insufficient, due to lack of man power and transportation costs. A smart and innovative methodology is proposed in this paper to efficiently handle this scenario.
