The rapid increase in electronic waste (e-waste) due to technological advancement and frequent device upgrades has become a significant environmental concern. Improper disposal of e-waste leads to hazardous impacts on both human health and the ecosystem. This paper presents an Android-based E-Waste Management System designed to streamline the collection, management, and recycling of electronic waste through a digital platform. The proposed system integrates three primary stakeholders: users, recyclers, and administrators. Users can locate nearby authorized recyclers using GPS-based services, submit e-waste details, and schedule pickup requests. Recyclers can manage incoming requests, schedule pickups, and update collection status, while administrators monitor overall system activities and ensure operational efficiency. The system is developed using Flutter for the frontend, Kotlin for backend logic, and Firebase for real-time database management and authentication. Additionally, a reward-based mechanism is incorporated to encourage users to adopt responsible disposal practices. The implementation demonstrates improved accessibility, transparency, and efficiency in e-waste management. The proposed solution provides a scalable and user-friendly approach to promote sustainable waste disposal and contributes toward environmental conservation.
