Changes to bin collections have been announced by Edinburgh City Council following the death of the Queen.
Road closures in place for the arrival of the Queen's coffin in the capital and procession up the Royal Mile to Giles Cathedral will impact waste collection in the Old Town.
Elizabeth II, Britain's longest-serving monarch, passed away aged 96 at Balmoral on Thursday (September 8).

Council leader Cammy Day said there will be "significant disruption across the city" as preparations get underway to accommodate thousands of mourners expected to turn out.
"We’re working closely with our partners to manage this as best we can and to keep residents, businesses and visitors updated on all plans," Cllr Day added.
The local authority has confirmed all communal bins in the Old Town will be collected overnight whilst roads are closed-off. It said there could also be "some delays to collections in other parts of the city".
In addition, street litter bins have been removed from the length of the Royal Mile and people are being urged to take litter home or use the next nearest bin.
