If you’re like ITC and have a fresh Christmas Tree, you will be wondering what to do with the tree once the decorations are removed. The traditional day for taking down your Christmas Tree is 6th January (epiphany).
Here are the options for disposing of your Fresh Christmas Tree.
Option 1
Residents can dispose of fresh Christmas trees in the Green Waste Bin if it’s been cut up into 30 centimetre lengths with branches and trunk no thicker than 10cm. The lid of the green waste bin must be completely closed when presented for collection. If the tree sticks out from the top of the bin, the waste truck is unable to empty it due to the extra height – so please do the right thing so that your green waste bin is able to be emptied on collection day.
Option 2
Drop your fresh Christmas tree at the Lane Cove Council Depot, Lloyd Rees Drive, Lane Cove West – the spot is located just opposite the Lane Cove Scout Hall – do not dispose of in front of the depot.
Please stack the trees with the trunk facing towards the Scout Hall and check to see l if you remove all decorations. This the pile much easier to pull apart and feed through the chipper.
Conditions: This service is provided for Christmas trees only. Only one tree per household. No additional green waste will be accepted. Proof of residency is required. Please do not leave trees at the Depot or dump them in and around the Depot fence.
Last year we took our tree and the neighbour’s tree with us – so ask your neighbours or friends if they want to dispose of their tree with you.
Taronga Zoo
We used to advise people to drop off their Christmas Tree at Taronga Zoo. However they told us that they get inundated with trees and they cannot kep up – so asked us to advise people not to drop off their tree to Taronga.
Happy New Year everyone.
