<p>Update: It was collected after a couple of requests to Veolia by email.<br/>It was a surgical strike, they did not remove trees from neighbours' gardens even though a couple of them seemed to meet the removal requirements. Guess there'll be a few extras adorning the street as spring approaches.</p>

<p>Same with ours, cur to size as required. I called to report it on Weds. They responded on Thursday to say that the tree would be collected on Friday. They collected it today (Saturday). </p>

<p>cut into 1m lengths. That's all, then. (sarcasm) My shoulders killing me. Can't get my son to help. Plus needles getting between the cracks of my patio will look awful for months and encourage weeds. Not everyone possesses a saw, either. Meanwhile they have perfectly good trucks equipped with shredders (and the bark chips cd go to Parks and allotments). I don't blame people for flytipping. Serves H Council right. If we could coordinate it, it would be great to do a mass flytipping. Dump all…</p>

<p>This is a daft suggestion that residents have to cut a three meter long Xmas tree into three sections of one meter before they will collect it. The trunks are hard to cut and the prickly leaves make it hard to access the trunk. Most residents are not strong enough to cut the tree and do not have a saw! </p>
<p>I have seen so many flytipped trees in Wood Green this week. The council will not collect them because they are not cut into handy portions to load into their large vans! </p>
