Wheelie bins are being introduced across Worcester in a bid to improve recycling rates.
They are being rolled-out across the city over a two-year period to ensure a smooth transition from bags to bins.
Once the more environmentally-friendly service is in full use it is expected to save up to £300,000 a year.
Council leader Stephen Inman said: "One advantage of the new system is the bins are cleaner, and safer, than the bags previously distributed to houses."
Deputy Simon Geraghty said: "Everyone at the council is confident that once the new system is up and running we will quickly win over any remaining sceptics.
