Abstract
In waste management systems, there exist a lot of constraints that tends to reduce hamper smooth waste disposal. Most refuse bins are remotely located a bit far and scattered, so most times before the waste management agencies can come and empty this large bins, the refuse collector may have been overfilled and thus cause pollution. This paper introduces a system that can automatically check the level of refuse in a refuse collector and send an alert by SMS to a local waste management office and notify them. This way they can make arrangements and have it emptied before it is even fully filled up. This system employs an SMS module, arduino and a transducer which detects the refuse level in the refuse collector.
