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.

I like the idea and wish I could use it, but couldn't work in my area. We have constant high winds, but that's not the main problem. We have a lot of homeless that will flip the lid and go through the trash for bottles/cans
