Hide AdRotherham Council’s assistant director of community safety and street scene, Tom Smith said: “We are working extremely hard to keep services going during this very difficult time, but like many other local authorities and businesses we are struggling to maintain the necessary staffing levels, particularly drivers.
“I realise this will be disappointing news for our garden waste service customers and I thank them for their patience and understanding. We will keep them informed about when collections can begin again.”
