'I can't say on camera the things I see as a waste worker'

Rab O'Neill has been a street cleansing worker in Edinburgh for 34 years.

It's a job he enjoys, but with up to 220 bins to empty a day, he said it can also be "hard and physically demanding".

"There are surprises everyday - some of them I can't say on camera," he added.

BBC Scotland News ed Rab on one of his shifts to see first-hand what his role involves.

Produced by Kayleigh Harvey and filmed by Pippa Ligertwood.
