Vancouver residents will only need to haul their green bins out to the curb every second week for the next few months.
The city is scaling back its organic waste collection service starting next Monday and until the week of March 4.
Green bin pickup will occur on the same day as garbage pickup during that time.

The city says the change is temporary for winter, and is a result of lower volumes of yard trimmings during the colder months.
It says the move will also allow for more predictable service during times when snow and ice may affect its trucks.
