In order to comply with the trend of garbage classification and cultivate people's behavioral habits, the persuasive design of community garbage sorting and recycling equipment was researched. Through questionnaire surveys and field observations, the community residents' garbage classification behaviors are investigated, the target users and target behaviors are determined, and the hindering factors are extracted from them. According to the Fogg behavior model, starting from the three aspects of enhancing user motivation, improving user capabilities, and adding trigger factors, appropriate persuasion strategies are selected to improve the equipment to solve the hindering factors.According to the applicable persuasion strategy, the equipment shall be functionally planned. The equipment with behavioral persuasion function is composed of intelligent trash cans, intelligent publicity signs and mobile apps. Through the cooperation of the three, the implementation ability of community residents' garbage sorting and disposal is enhanced. Applying persuasion theory to community garbage sorting and recycling equipment can design the equipment that is more suitable for community use.
