Aaargh! She's at it again. Barely have we hung the baubles on the branches and switched on the lights and Mrs Eds starts on about how to get rid of the flamin' tree!
Last year saw a lot less of this
and a lot more of this
but it's still handy to be reminded of what to do with your tree on January 7th
There are three possible ways to recycle your Christmas tree in Haringey, but before you use any of them please remember to remove all lights and decorations.
If you receive a green garden waste collection, you can cut your tree into smaller pieces (maximum length 1 metre or 3 feet) and put it out for collection. It is essential that your tree is cut into smaller pieces, otherwise it cannot be collected
Christmas trees can also be taken to Haringey's Reuse and Recycling Centres:
Opening times:
Monday to Friday: 8.30am to 4pm
Saturday and Sunday: 9am to 4pm
Alternatively, you can take them to designated sites in the following parks
from Monday 7 January - Sunday 27 January 2013:
*The two Harringay sites
As ever the annual Spotting Christmas Tree Carcasses competition will open from Jan 7th. Latest spot wins. I think John D tried to claim the record for finding one discarded in May but as photographic evidence is required Alan's April tree is still the current record holder

Indeed, this post reminds me of those BACK TO SCHOOL BARGAIN ads which used appear in July and annoy the hell out of me as I tried to recuperate after three terms of the wee buggers.
Yup there is a massive pile growing now in the corner of Priory Park.... it's getting shredded and used to scatter around the tress in the park.
