Staff at Biffa, the company which collects waste for Manchester council, voted to take industrial action starting on Tuesday for four weeks altogether.
It came after the company offered some staff a pay rise of just 17p an hour.
But Biffa has now offered a two-year pay deal worth 22pc for drivers, 11pc for loaders and between 8 to 11pc for street scene workers, according to unions.
The Local Democracy Reporting Service understands that this means drivers are set to receive around £13.90 an hour while loaders will get just over £11.
