Council give bin collection update as it's going to be scorchio in Central Bedfordshire
On Monday (June 30) and Tuesday (July 1), we could be looking at 30.5C (87F) and 30C (86F) before it gets a little cooler during the rest of the week.
So, to help waste crews during the warm weather, collections will start earlier in the morning on those two days.
