Bin strikes in Glasgow are wreaking havoc across the city as people are left with overflowing bins. 

However, there are places you can take your bins to get rid of your rubbish as the strikes continue. 

With the strikes expected to last until November 8, here's where you can empty your bins today...

Where can I empty my bins today?

You can take your bins to Shieldhall Household Waste Recycling Centre in the south west of the city. 

This is the only recycling centre open in the city today, open from 8am-6pm, with last entry at 5:45pm. 

Another centre may open later depending on staff being available.  

Glasgow City Council advises people to keep up to date on its website, which will be updated as more centres become available.

970 cleansing workers are striking during COP26 in a bid for better pay, forcing Glasgow city council to bring in contractors to collect bins.
