City of Greater Bendigo waste services manager Brooke Pearce said waste, recycling and organics was collected on all public holidays except Christmas day and Good Friday.
"This Christmas we have decided to have our truck drivers catch up the missed collections over the Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. We are asking residents to please leave their bins kerbside until our drivers arrive to empty them," Ms Pearce said.
"In the past if Christmas fell on a Monday or Tuesday we have collected on the Saturday before but this has often resulted in confusion for some residents.”
Only collections due on Christmas day are affected – all other collections over the holiday season will take place on their usual day of the week.
