After Christmas 2021 South Oxfordshire District Council collected 2,684 Christmas trees from their Christmas tree collection points; approximately 60.85 tonnes (based on an average weight for a 6ft tree). These trees were sent to be composted and saved 0.75 tonnes of carbon from being emitted into the atmosphere, if they had been incinerated.
This year customers of the garden waste service can put out their Christmas trees for collection for composting with their brown bins or you can drop off your real Christmas trees at the Cattlemarket car park until Saturday 7 January.
