Bin collection strikes in Stirling and Clackmannanshire could still go ahead.
Members from the biggest local government union, UNISON, have rejected the latest pay offer.
The offer includes an hourly uplift of £0.67 or a 3.6% increase, whichever is higher.
It's been accepted by unions Unite and GMB.
UNISON Scotland local government committee chair Colette Hunter said: “Cosla and the Scottish government need to understand the anger among council staff. They want a fair increase to stop their pay consistently falling behind, and for their wage increase to be in line with other areas of the economy.
“The last thing anyone wants to do is go on strike, but local government workers deserve better. This result must be a wake-up call and get the employers and government to invest in local services and the staff who deliver them.”
UNISON Scotland co-lead for local government David O’Connor said: “Councils are in crisis. They struggle to recruit because workers are expected to deliver even more with fewer staff and lower wages. That puts workers and the services they provide under intolerable pressure. It’s unsustainable it can’t go on.”
