We know it seems far too soon to even think about – we’re all firmly in the Christmas spirit! All too quickly the time will be upon us to pack away our Christmas trees, so we’ve got some tips for how to properly recycle your real Christmas tree in Southwark. To arrange a kerbside pickup, email environment@southwark.gov.uk with your name and address and leave the tree outside your property. Collections typically take place in mid-January, and trees over 6 feet must be cut in half. If you’d prefer to drop off your tree, book a permit and take it to Reuse and Recycling Centre on Devon Street where they’ll recycle your tree and you’ll know you’ve done your bit for the environment.
