This proposed work is based on the idealization of the world with a safe, hygienic and green environment. This paper presents a cost-abating Automatic Smart Dustbin for small scale purpose like in Shopping Malls, Hospitals, Offices and in household. Due to the current pandemic situation it has become a necessity to keep cleanliness around. It gives an insight to a smart dustbin system based on Arduino and Ultrasonic sensor which monitors the fullness of the dustbin and sends signals using LEDs. It also includes a Servo motor with Ultrasonic Sensor which administers the cap of the dustbin. This is powered using lithium battery and bonnet is controlled by Servo motor. Lastly, the system is developed at an affordable and acceptable cost for the intended application and the performance was found satisfactory.
