But the council is not ruling out introducing the controversial change from the following financial year (2026/27).
In a statement the council said the changes will "only be considered" once plans for a new free weekly food waste collection have been agreed.
Currently, general waste household collections take place every two weeks.
The prospect of three-weekly collections was raised by the council in its budget consultation as one of the proposals to save money.
