Hi,

I would like to know if my garbage bins made it to the curb before family members left home on trash day. I would think a battery operated gps with zigbee would be perfect. I couldn’t find a commercial product like this, if anyone is aware of one please comment. Otherwise, I think I will have to roll my own, maybe with an esp32 and zigbee or even esp32home.

Unless there is a better way to track location of my bins, i just need to know if they are at the curb or not. I could put a magnet at the curb or something.

    I like cameras. Otherwise you’re looking at something like a “roll up door contact” and some water proof conduit maybe. That way you can monitor it on a plugged in device.
