Abstract Waste is discarded in various forms worldwide, including plastic, glass and hazardous waste. People typically seek out designated containers, such as dustbins, for waste disposal. However, precisely gauging the volume of waste in a community can be a complex task, and dustbins have limited capacity. The IOT based Smart Dustbin project represents a promising step towards an intelligent Waste Management System. In our innovative Smart Dustbin project, we've designed a IOT equipped prototype with a unique feature. The dustbin's lid automatically opens when it detects presence of waste. After that the  particular section of the dustbin’s lid get’s opened and then gets close by a period of time. This project incorporates key components like Microcontroller, Servo Motor, and Camera Module. There are traditional management systems like periodic and routine clearing by various civic bodies like the municipal corporation. But even though these routine maintenance are carried out low efficiently.
