Changes to Fife bin collections over Christmas and New Year have been revealed.
There will be a series of alterations to household collections and recycling centres during the festive period.
Fife Council is also encouraging residents to recycle as much as they can during that time to cut down on waste.
Changes to Fife bin collections at Christmas and New Year
There will be no waste and recycling collections across Fife on the following dates:
- Christmas Day
