Powys County Council has warned residents in Welshpool and the surrounding area that some of their wheelie bins may not be collected today.
The regional authority said that staff shortages have hit the Welshpool depot and apologised for the glitch.
In a statement, PCC said: “Apologies, staff shortages at our Welshpool Depot mean that we will not be able to collect residual rubbish in the Llandysul, Long Mountain and Brookfield Road areas today. Please leave your wheeled bin out and we will collect in the next few days.”
