THE previously advertised revised collection of waste bins and recycling boxes across North East Lincolnshire over the festive period is currently running behind schedule.

The freezing temperatures have made it difficult for crews to make collections due to slippery roads and footways.

Crews will be working on Friday 2 January as planned and on Saturday 3 January to help catch up with outstanding collections.

If residents’ bins or boxes have not been collected, they are asked to retrieve them and present them the following day, from Friday onwards.

The council apologises for any inconvenience this may cause
