"But this cannot be guaranteed and there will be contingency plans for alternative arrangements if a full service cannot be provided," head of neighbourhood services Edd de Coverly has pointed out.
He said: "Some council employees are members of t
he Unison and Unite unions, who are taking this action.
"But our waste collection employees are not affiliated with these unions, so we are hoping the service will not be affected, although we cannot guarantee this.
"We will be asking residents to put out their wheelie bins and blue box, if applicable, as normal and we will be aiming to collect them.
"We apologise for any inconvenience that may be caused but we are confident we can minimise disruption during this time."
Mr de Coverley added that residents whose collections fell either on a Wednesday or Thursday would shortly be receiving a letter confirming the revised arrangements if these needed to be made.
A similar request has been made to residents of Linby, Papplewick, Newstead and Bestwood Village by Gedling Borough Council.
As far as Bulwell is concerned, a Nottingham City Council spokesman said they would negotiate with unions about which services would be exempt from strike action.
Some schools, libraries and leisure services across Nottinghamshire will close during the strike, although no specific information has yet been forthcoming as to which these will be.
City, county and borough council workers from the two unions have voted to strike, rejecting a 2.45% government pay settlement.
The unions claim that high inflation is hitting low-paid workers very hard.
