Tewkesbury Borough Council’s garden waste collection service is suspended from Monday, 23 December 2024 to Monday, 6 January 2025. Small trees can go in the brown bin, but trees taller than two metres (six feet) will need to be cut in half and placed next to the bin for collection from Tuesday, 7 January 2025. Crews will collect trees left on the pavement or by the side of the bin.
Councillor Sarah Hands, Lead Member for Environmental Services, said: “Real Christmas trees are 100% recyclable – they can be shredded and used as chippings for natural paths in parks and woodland.
“It’s very easy for people to recycle their trees, so I would urge everyone to do so once the festive season is over and give them a new lease of life.”
You can also recycle your Christmas tree at any of the Household Recycling Centres in Gloucestershire – please remember to book your visit in advance.
