A BCC spokesperson warned of closures and disruption to many Belfast City Council services.
They added any missed bin collections will now take place over the weekend.
“Bins should be left out by 7am on Saturday. If they are not emptied tomorrow, residents should bring them back in, and then leave out again by 7am on Sunday,” they explained.
“Bryson Recycling boxes will be done on their next scheduled collection date.”
All council parks, playgrounds and pitches are also closed on Friday, along with all community and leisure centres and council buildings, including City Hall, Belfast Zoo and St George’s Market.
Schools and colleges have also been forced to close and public transport has come to a halt. Flights have also been cancelled with motorists warned of significant disruption due to fallen trees and debris across several roads.
