Christmas Tree Recycling
We are supporting East Anglia’s Children’s Hospice again this year who will be collecting real Christmas trees for recycling on Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th January.
To check availability and book your slot visit just-helping.org.uk/register-tree
Donations received from the Christmas tree collection provide vital funds for your hospice and other local charities.
Real trees can be placed by the side of the garden bin on collection day. If the tree is bigger than the bin we ask that it is chopped
in half.
The Household Recycling Centres will also take Christmas trees.
