Householders across the Harrogate district are being advised to look out for a letter about their waste and recycling collections.
To ensure the waste and recycling service remains "as efficient as possible" and there is a "harmonious approach" across the county, North Yorkshire Council are making changes to collections days.
Collections will now take place between Tuesdays and Fridays, which will allow the council to provide a "more reliable service" and also reduce the need for bank holiday disruptions.
As a result, the majority of residents in Harrogate and the surrounding areas will receive a letter explaining what their new collection day will be for both rubbish and recycling, starting the week commencing Monday 21st April.
The letter also provides further details about how to check collection days, what time rubbish or recycling should be presented, and what householders can do if they need any further information.
Executive member for waste services, Cllr Greg White, said:
"By making collections from Tuesday through to Friday, we can provide a more reliable and consistent service for all residents across North Yorkshire.
"We are now writing to all residents in Harrogate and the surrounding area, advising them of their new collection day, so they’re urged to keep an eye out for any changes they might see
"Residents are also being reminded they will need to continue to present their rubbish and recycling at their collection point by 6am."
From 21st April, residents can also check their new collection day online at www.northyorks.gov.uk/bin-calendar/lookup
