Video report by ITV News Consumer Editor Chris Choi

Monthly bin collections are being trialled by an increasing number of councils.

Research by ITV News has found that after trials began in Fife last year, more and more areas are seeing their rubbish collections cut to once every four weeks, or once every three.

While the decision in Fife was a controversial one, the idea caught on and councils who are trialing the move say that it is necessary to save money and meet environmental targets.
