Edinburgh Council has announced the locations of each one of the 144 bin hubs across the city which have been, or will, change.

Some of these changes have already been carried out, but around 100 of the facilities are set to be expanded, removed or moved.

Councillors moved forward with the plans at a committee meeting on Thursday, which also saw a controversial plan to ban parking in a dense city neighbourhood approved.

Decisions to change bin hubs are made in response to consultations, as well as changes in policy.

Of the 45,000 houses covered by the hubs, 144 households have lodged complaints to the council.

Bin hubs have been being introduced across the city since 2021. Currently, the hubs cover much of the central area of the city, with the exception of the Old Town.

Council officers said that many of the planned changes will take place within weeks.
