Changes to refuse and recycling collections over the Christmas and New Year will only affect some households in the District this festive season as Stratford-on-Avon District Council and Biffa Municipal Ltd have devised an innovative approach to collections this year.
Only properties due for a collection on a Bank Holiday will have a day change and two of the days will be collected in one.
For the last two years it has taken three weeks for collections to return to normal and every household has been affected.
Cllr Mike Brain, Technical Services Portfolio says: “The way the Bank Holidays fall this year offers an opportunity to use an unusual solution to ensure residents have the least amount of disruption possible."
There will be no collections of rubbish, recyclables or green waste on Thursday 25, Friday 26 December 2014 and Thursday 1 January 2015.
Revised arrangements are shown below

On all other dates collections will take place as normal.
Week commencing Monday 5 January 2014 collections will return to normal.
In the event of adverse weather affecting collections please check the District Council's website at www.stratford.gov.uk/winter or Twitter on @StratfordDC for all the latest updates.
The revised collection information is available in the Council Tax booklet distributed in March this year, the Stratford View magazine distributed in November and is available on the District Council's website.
