Dunno about others, but my council have cut back on the frequency of bin collections.
The green bins (with garden and food waste) are not being collected at all (save for one collection at the end of this month). Strangely, we still have to put food waste in the general waste bin, which means it fills up quicker.
The paper bin is being collected 4 weekly, instead of every 2.
Now, given that most people are now (because of lockdown) eating the vast majority (if not all) of their food at home, there is more waste created, but it is being collected less frequently.
