Real Christmas tree recycling
In January we offer free real Christmas tree recycling for all residents.
This is a fortnightly service - check your Christmas bin label for details of when real Christmas tree collections happen in your road.
Remove all decorations and leave your real Christmas tree next to your bins on your real Christmas tree recycling day.
Don't cut up your tree - it's easier for us to collect whole.
