With population growth and increasing waste generation, urban areas face significant pressure on waste management systems. Traditional waste collection methods often lead to inefficiencies, rising operational costs, and environmental concerns. This project aims to develop a smart waste management solution that enhances efficiency and sustainability by monitoring waste levels, enabling real-time tracking, and optimizing collection routes using IoT technology.
