“Christmas Trees
As part of your garden waste subscription, we collect real Christmas trees throughout January. Trees will be collected along with other garden waste on your normal garden waste collection day. We kindly ask that all trees are cut into lengths no greater than one metre and placed into your brown bin in order for us to be able to collect them.”
