East Ayrshire Council have announced changes to bin collection dates over the Christmas period.
Timings for bins due to be collected on Monday, December 26 and Monday, January 2 have both been changed.
Monday, December 26 bins will now be collected on Saturday, December 24.
January 2 bins will be collected on Saturday, December 31 instead.
All other collection dates across the festive period will operate as usual.
As collection times vary during the festive season, containers should be presented for collection the night before uplift or no later than 6.30am.
Up to three additional refuse sacks will be uplifted per household on the first landfill waste collection (green/grey bin) following Christmas Day. These should be placed alongside your bin at the kerbside.
Excess paper and cardboard stored in plastic sacks and placed beside your recycling trolley will be collected, as will larger flat packed cardboard.
East Ayrshire Council also recently announced rescheduled dates for garden waste recycling pick-ups, due to slots being missed because of industrial action taking place.
Recycling centres at Garlaff, Skares and Western Road, Kilmarnock will be closed on December 25, 26, January 1 and 2.
The centres will operate as usual outwith these dates.
More information about recycling schedules can be found on the East Ayrshire Council website.
