An electronic waste tracking device, process, and system to track waste from one location to another location.

A collection system comprises a structure having a plurality of first openings that provide access to a plurality of separate volumes within the structure. Each separate volume of the plurality of separate volumes is associated with a scannable indicium of a plurality of scannable indicia, wherein the scannable indicium indicates a category of contents of the separate volume.

Effective systems for separating, collecting and transferring organic waste from multi-unit residential buildings to deliver to composting centers are described which facilitate the reduction of contamination of the organic waste with non-compostable plastic bags. This is accomplished both by ensuring that the residents are constantly provided with compostable replacement bags for their kitchen caddies after each delivery of a bag by the resident to the recycling room, and through consistent marking that reminds residents of the system's requirements.

A bin for receiving or storing one or more items. The bin includes a wall having an upper end and a lower end, and a bottom extending along the lower end of the wall. The wall and the bottom cooperate to define a chamber for receiving or storing one or more items. The bin also includes mouth at the upper end of the wall that is in communication with the chamber. The bin further includes a rim extending around a periphery of the mouth. The bin also includes content information on at least a portion of an exterior surface of the rim that is configured to identify the one or more items the bin is intended to receive or store.

This invention is directed towards a waste enclosure device (device) comprising a waste enclosure employing operational functions including collection and monitoring capacity wherein said device includes one or more programmable logic controllers. Operational functions are performed by electrical components including sensors to determine waste deposits characteristics and contents. Said device operational functions are further adapted to send and receive data, optionally wirelessly, and configured and adapted to utilize solar derived electrical power and, optionally, electric power from other sources.

A recycling receptacle provides a physical example of items to be recycled as part of a recycling receptacle. The recycling receptacle includes a container portion for storing material to be recycled in a chamber and a communication portion for communicating what material should be recycled. The communication portion includes an opening in fluid communication with the container portion chamber and a visible cell that contains examples of materials that should be recycled.
