Fifers can now get their bin calendar for the coming year online.

Rather than delivering a paper copy to all households across the Kingdom, Fife Council say they are saving £20,000 and helping the environment by providing a downloadable version online.

You can enter your postcode to check dates of future bin day collections and have the option of printing off a handy calendar.

If you don't have access to the internet you can also visit your local library.

Householders needing a bin calendar in an alternative format, such as braille, can continue to receive these by calling the Recycling Helpline on 03451 55 00 22.
