Abstract: A system includes a trash box, a data acquiring device, a computer of a facility, a mobile, and a management server. The trash box is placed in a space facing a road for the mobile in the facility. The data acquiring device acquires collection status data of a trash in the trash box. The management server or the computer of the facility determines whether a collection of the trash box is required based on comparing a judgment element calculated by using a collection status data with a judgment threshold. The management server transmits a collection order to the mobile if it is determined that the collection of trash box is required. The mobile comprises an automatic collection device. The automatic collection device performs an automated replenishment control of the trash box if the mobile receives the collection order.

Abstract: An automated order processing for order items registered in advance as commodities targeted for automated order service is performed. In the automated order processing, it is determined whether any container/package for the order items exists in the disposal box, based on internal status data of a disposal box or identification data on the contents of the container/package existing in the disposal box. If it is determined that any container/package for the order items exists in the disposal box, the number of discarded containers/packages for the order items existing in the disposal box is calculated. Then, it is determined whether the number of discarded containers/packages is equal to or larger than an upper threshold set according to a sales mode of the order items. If it is determined that the number of discarded containers/packages is equal to or larger than the upper threshold, ordering data of the order items is generated.
