The Public OverDump Limiter or POD Limiter is an idea to implement an automatic indication system for waste management, in- order to create the social awareness for the people living in the domestic areas. This idea is to be implemented in the garbage bins over the streets. The main objective of this project is to prevent the pollution occurs due to excess garbage dumping .The components specifically used is the minimum of two IR sensors with the microcontroller ATMEGA-8 with the necessary electrical equipments. By using these sensors the over dumping of Garbage waste in bins can be avoided. This POD Limiter reduces man power that required maintaining the street from ruggedness and also freeing from manual maintenance. In order to avoid over dumping, the box holder is placed at the top of the bin so that if the bin is filled, the bin cap automatically closes and the information is given local corporation for fetching as well as disposal .This methodology uses IR sensors at different levels of the bin, so that to measure the quantity of the bin. The controller is used, which senses the levels of the garbage in the bin and does the closing of the inlet cap as well as communicate with . the respective .Hence the external power supply can be given through the renewable form of energy (i.e through solar power).
