Birmingham waste collections have been heavily disrupted by members of the Unite union in a dispute with the council.
How much do refuse workers in Birmingham and around the UK get paid?
The UK government website says that workers who collect household and commercial waste for disposal or recycling can expect to earn between £24,000 to £30,000.
Salaries vary around the UK, with London bin workers being the highest paid, with an average hourly rate of around £12.51, according to Indeed.
Glassdoor, a website where workers can post salaries anonymously, says it can say with a high degree of confidence that the estimated salary for a bin collector is £21,311 per year in the Birmingham area.
Bin lorry drivers can earn more, up to around £33,000 or more, but any starting salary can vary because of experience, training, or location.
The WRCO role, which Unite are fighting to keep, is unique to Birmingham City Council and was introduced in 2017 because of a previous bin strike, say the council.
