A system includes a trash box, a data acquiring device, a computer of a facility, a mobile, and a management server. The trash box is placed in a space facing a road for the mobile in the facility. The data acquiring device acquires collection status data of a trash in the trash box. The management server or the computer of the facility determines whether a collection of the trash box is required based on comparing a judgment element calculated by using a collection status data with a judgment threshold. The management server transmits a collection order to the mobile if it is determined that the collection of trash box is required. The mobile comprises an automatic collection device. The automatic collection device performs an automated replenishment control of the trash box if the mobile receives the collection order.

An embodiment relates to a trash collection device comprising a trash receptacle with a unique identification and an opening to receive a class of trash; an identification scanner for recognizing a user; a trash item counter; a fill level sensor; a display configured to interact with the user; a compactor; a solar panel configured to charge a battery; a data communicator configured to communicate date to a cloud storage; a processor configured to generate incentive for the user; wherein the trash collection device is configured to be modular and configurable to connect with another similar trash collection device to enable to collect additional trash class and is configured to interact with each other through a common software. The device, method and system are further used to generate recycling analytics by using the stored data to provide incentives to users and to facilitate planning of downstream operations.

A remotely-controllable transporter for waste receptacles is disclosed herein in several examples. As one example, the remotely-controllable transporter may include an axle for replacing a native waste receptacle axle and be configured to removably attach thereto. In another example, the remotely-controllable transporter may include side brackets to removably attach to a variety of waste receptacles. In yet another example, the remotely-controllable transporter may be part of an integrally-formed waste receptacle assembly. Also disclosed herein are methods for use of the disclosed remotely-controllable transporters and waste receptacle assemblies.

A trash container having an automated trash bag dispensing system which automatically deploys a replacement trash bag upon removal of a filled bag. A supply of trash bags is fed into the main trash container by a motorized roller assembly. A pair of opposing suction pads are pivotally deployed inward and suction activation attracts the opposing sides of the bag to corresponding suction pads. Retraction of the suction pads functions to expand the bag to an open configuration whereby it is suitably configured to receive trash.

Systems and methods for autonomous robotic waste and recycling bin collection, including a plurality of receptacles, having a lid, a fill sensor on the underside of the lid and a collection bin, with a robot engagement mechanism. The fill sensor detects a fill level of the receptacle. The system also has autonomous robots, having a plurality of robot sensors and at least one prong connected to a motor. A bin collection server receives the fill levels from the fill sensors; determines a plurality of full bins; generates a collection instruction and sends the collection instruction to an autonomous robot. The autonomous robot navigates to each bin; inserts at least one prong into the robot engagement mechanism; lifts the collection bin; navigates to the collection facility; and deposits the collection bin in the collection facility.

There is provided a mobile waste segregation system transportable between different sites. The mobile waste segregation system comprises: an enclosure unit (10) configured for housing a human operator (12), the enclosure unit (10) including a waste segregation facility (14) for receiving at least one waste container and segregating the waste from the or each waste container into different streams of product or commodity, the enclosure unit (10) further including a packing facility operable to pack each stream of product or commodity; an asset tag reader operable to read an asset tag of the or each waste container; and an asset tagging device operable to add an asset tag to each packed stream of product or commodity and/or update an existing asset tag of each packed stream of product or commodity.

A computer-controlled rubbish container includes a power bank, a control circuit, and a wheel assembly coupled to a bottom portion of a rubbish container. The wheel assembly includes an electric motor coupled to a wheel, wherein the wheel rotates upon a wireless signal sent from a computer to the control circuit. In some embodiments, the wheel assembly is configured to engage and disengage from a ground surface such that the rubbish container is capable of manual pushing.

A trash container includes a container unit and an ultrasonic deodorizing device. The container unit includes a container having a top opening and a container cavity, and a container cover being moved between an opened position and a closed position. The ultrasonic deodorizing device includes a deodorizing carrier supported above the top opening of the container body for containing deodorant in liquid form, an ultrasonic nozzle operatively coupled at the deodorizing carrier for downwardly injecting the deodorant in an atomization manner below the top opening of the container body, and a nozzle controller configured to control and activate the ultrasonic nozzle.

A system is disclosed for managing services at a customer location. The system may have at least one offboard utility meter, a communication device, and a controller in communication with the at least one offboard utility meter via the communication device. The controller may be configured to receive information from the at least one offboard utility meter during a waste service activity at the customer location by a waste service vehicle and to determine based on the information from the at least one offboard utility meter a fee associated with at least one utility service provided at the customer location. The controller may also be configured to generate at least one invoice for the waste service activity and for the fee associated with the at least one utility service.
