Residents are reminded to put their black wheelie bins, black box and blue and green recycling bags out as normal for collections from 6am onwards.
Councillor Damian Corfield, cabinet member for highways and environmental services, said:
“Our crews will be working hard over the Christmas period, and by changing collections by just one day hopefully people will be able to accommodate this simple switch.
“Christmas always generates a lot of extra waste, so do make the most of those recycling bags and boxes and recycle what you can.”
