That’s why the Press & Journal has put together a handy list for all documented bin collection disruption.
No matter if you are from Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Moray , Argll or the Highlands and Islands, we have all the latest information you need.
Aberdeen
Disruption to bin collections in Aberdeen is set to continue during the adverse weather today.
Despite no official list of specific areas affected by the disruption, Aberdeen City Council announced yesterday they were not able to complete some collections this week.
Taking to social media, they asked residents to “bear with us”.
A post on Facebook read: “Due to the ongoing weather conditions brown bins and Christmas trees scheduled for Thursday and Friday will not collected and should instead be put out on their next scheduled day.”
No disruption to the city’s recycling centres has been reported as of yet.

Highlands
Bin collections in the Highlands are also set to be affected by treacherous conditions.
That’s after an amber weather warning was issued in the region for snow after 3pm until Thursday at 6pm.
It is expected that bin collections after that period will be especially challenging.
The Highland Council announced delays to collections in certain areas yesterday as Sutherland, Skye and Localsh were all affected.
A statement on Facebook read: “Adverse weather is affecting bin collections today and yesterday.
“If this affects you please leave your bin out and it will be collected as soon as possible.
Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.”
Shetland
Mainland collections on Shetland will not take place today due to the adverse weather conditions.
Collections are also unlikely to take place this week due to the amber weather warning issued for the island.
A post on the council’s Facebook page read: “Temperatures are forecast to be above freezing later in the week and hopefully road conditions will improve.
“Staff will try to collect any previously missed collections this weekend wherever possible.
“We will prioritise the collection of black bags, rather than recycling collections.”
Orkney
No bin collections will be made in Orkney today, due to a severe weather warning.
