Falkirk school kids name districts waste and street cleaning vehicles

School kids across Falkirk have named 24 of the local authority's waste and street cleaning vehicles.

Around 225 names were suggested by pupils - all linked to waste and collection - with enough puns and wordplay to make any marketing pro jealous.

Bin Kardashian, Dustbin Bieber, Meryl Sweep and Bin and Tonic are just some of the names chosen and will grace Falkirk's streets.

The overall winner was 'Haggis, Sweeps and Tatties'.

Thomas Murphy, Area Estates Officer, Street Cleansing said: "It’s great to see different departments working together and spreading awareness about litter in a fun and interactive way.

"I think it’s important working with local schools to educate the younger generation and spread awareness about the damage that litter can do to our communities."
