Welcome Lund! Fantastic design and initiative for smarter sanitation with public Wi-Fi.
On Monday, two newly purchased garbage cans will be connected online. BigBelly the model that both tells you when the barrel needs to be emptied and serves with free wifi for all surf enthusiasts who are close enough. The barrel has been around for a while but Lund is now the first city that also offers public wifi in connection with garbage bins.
This particular model fits well because it holds a lot, Alexandra explains. With the help of solar energy, the debris is compressed five times the volume of the vessel, which means that we do not have to empty as often. The trash can then communicates its filling rate in real time and tells itself when it needs to be emptied via a special app or via sms. Everything is monitored in a cloud-based software. In addition to this, we have also chosen to equip the trash can with a public wifi, integrated ashtray and foot pedal for opening the throw-in door. We are now very curious about how the people of Lund will receive and use the new garbage can.
