The industrial revolution 4.0 demands the convenience of a human life facility. Not to forget also in the cleaning service. When we will dispose of trash, we do not need to look for the trash can, it is precisely the trash can that will approach us. This smartphone-based application uses the A * (A star) algorithm as the basis for its work, while for communication between smartphones with the trash can system using blue tooth. The smartphone sends its coordinate position through the Global Positioning System facility, then the trash can system will search for the sender's location. The experimental results show that the average stopping distance indoors without barrier is 7.03 meters with an average time response of 25.3 seconds, the average stopping distance in the room with a barrier of 7.2 meters with the average response time 3.6 seconds average, stopping distance outdoor without a barrier of 5.7 meters with an average response time of 258.3 seconds, and the average outdoor stopping distance with a barrier of 2.73 meters with a response an average time of 141.3 seconds.
