FIFE Council are asking Fifers to check their bin calendar online this Sunday as changes are made to some green bin collections.

The council is still picking up all blue, brown and green bins across Fife, but some households will have their green bin (plastics and cans) collected on a different week.

Not everyone will be affected but you can check online here whether your postcode is.

It is part of an effort to "help us manage resources at this challenging time," the council said.

"Like other front-line essential services across the country, bin men are working in challenging circumstances.

"We know that many people are struggling with all the changes that we are having to make to our lifestyles. We are trying our best to deliver the best service we can.

"If your bin is out for collection, and it’s not been collected by the evening of Friday, April 3, please bring it back in until the next scheduled collection.

"Brown bins (garden and food waste) continue to be collected every four weeks. If you have any concerns about excess food waste, please place this in your blue landfill bin.

"We’ve temporarily stopped collections of grey (paper/cardboard recycling) bins. We’re reviewing this and will re-instate as soon as we can.

"It really helps is us if you only put out bins for collection that need emptied (or are more than half full).

"Our recycling centres remain closed, in line with government restrictions. If you have items you would normally dispose of at recycling centres, please store these securely until services resume.

"We know that these are extremely challenging times for many of you. Please look out for your neighbours and check that they can put their bins out on the right day."
