# 🧠 Trash Classifier - Smart Garbage Sorting AI

This model classifies waste images into one of six recyclable or non-recyclable categories:

- ♻️ Cardboard  
- 🧴 Plastic  
- 📰 Paper  
- 🪙 Metal  
- 🍾 Glass  
- 🗑 Trash (non-recyclable)

## 🚀 Try It Live

Upload an image of trash and the model will predict which category it belongs to.

image_path = "example.jpg"

with open(image_path, "rb") as f:
    files = {"image": f}
    response = requests.post(api_url, files=files)

print(response.json())
````
