Reward every drop-off

Smart recycle bins

Solar-powered reverse-vending machines and automatic drive-thru recycle centres that weigh what you drop off, sort it on the spot, and put cash rewards straight into your account — no staff required.

How it works at a glance

Drop off, get weighed, get rewarded

Our smart bins remove every friction point from community recycling. Residents walk up, deposit their plastics, tins or paper, watch the screen confirm the weight, and receive a cashless reward — all in under a minute.

No manual sorting needed

Each unit has dedicated chutes — plastics, tins & metals, and paper — so material stays clean and recyclable.

Automatic cash rewards

Weight is logged instantly and rewards credited to the user's account — no vouchers, no counters, no waiting.

Live data for site owners

A web dashboard shows fill levels, total weight collected, and verified ESG data you can use in reports.

What makes these bins different

Built to run themselves

Every unit is designed for high-footfall public spaces: low maintenance, weatherproof, and always earning data.

Solar powered

Built-in solar panel keeps the unit running without a mains connection — no wiring costs for your car park or outdoor area.

Precision weighing

An internal scale logs the exact weight of every deposit. Users see it on screen. You get it in your dashboard. The data is verifiable for ESG reporting.

Three sorted streams

Separate chutes for plastik (bottles & containers), tin & besi (aluminium and steel cans), and kertas (cardboard and paper). Clean streams mean higher material value.

Cashless reward system

Residents earn rewards per kilogram that go directly into their Trash4Cash account — redeemable as cash or shopping credit.

Real-time data dashboard

Site managers and ESG officers get a live view of fill levels, total tonnage, carbon offset estimates, and user participation rates.

Low-maintenance design

Full sensor, no staff. When a chute reaches capacity, the system alerts our team for collection — so your space stays tidy.

Who hosts our smart bins

Right for any high-footfall site

If people gather there regularly, a smart bin turns their routine into a recycling habit — and gives you the ESG data to prove it.

Shopping malls & retail

Give shoppers a reason to bring recyclables from home. Partners like AEON and KIP Mall use our units to run in-mall recycling programmes that drive footfall and meet sustainability KPIs.

Residential communities & condos

Place a unit in the car park or common area. Residents recycle on their own schedule and earn rewards without going out of their way.

Offices & corporate campuses

Supplement your internal recycling programme with a measured, rewarded system. Every tonne collected is logged with verified weight data for your ESG and sustainability reports.

Local councils & municipalities

We work with local councils such as MP Sepang to deploy units across public sites. Get community recycling data ward by ward, with zero burden on your operations team.

For residents and users

How to use a smart bin

From first drop-off to cash reward in four steps.

Sign up once

Download the Trash4Cash app or register at the bin's touchscreen. Your account is linked to every smart bin at every site.

Choose the right chute

Drop plastics into plastik, cans and metals into tin & besi, and cardboard or paper into kertas. The chutes are labelled clearly on every unit.

Watch it weigh

The screen confirms the weight of your deposit in real time. The data is logged to your account and to the site's dashboard immediately.

Collect your reward

Cash rewards are credited to your Trash4Cash account. Redeem them as e-wallet credit or bank transfer — no counter, no queue.

Bigger-scale option

Drive-thru recycle centres

For sites that need higher throughput, we deploy automatic drive-thru recycling centres. Residents drive in, offload larger volumes of material, and drive out with their reward — all automated, all on-site.

Handles bulkier volumes

Accepts large loads of cardboard, plastics and metals that wouldn't fit in a standard smart bin.

Same reward system

Weighed, logged and rewarded automatically — consistent data across both formats.

Branded to your site

Units can carry your branding alongside ours — popular with malls, councils and developer townships.
