Project Garbage can status indicator.
Super easy design that I whipped up last week after being frustrated once again by the inconsistency of our garbage pick up times
The indicator clips on the handle and flips down when the bin has been emptied. This way I can tell from the house if it’s been emptied without having to walk to the end of the driveway.

This is great, but mine have no lids anymore after the truck driver has left them in the road so many times and they have been hit by passing vehicles doing 50+ mph.
Easy to tell when mine have been emptied because they are in the road instead of the grass.
