Christmas trees

You can recycle Christmas trees, free of charge, at all household waste recycling centres.

Real Christmas trees are shredded and composted. They should be placed in the garden waste skip.

Artificial Christmas trees can be placed in the small appliance, scrap metal or plastic reuse container, depending on what they are made of.
