A:Answer Yes, it will complete its route through your home, then dock itself for charging/dirt bin disposal. Be sure you are selecting the correct bundle, however. The Roomba i3 model can come as a stand-alone item (just vacuum robot), the i3 vacuum with charger dock, OR the i3 vacuum with charger dock which also is an auto-emptying dirt bin. You can also upgrade later to the auto-emptying charger dock.
