Recycling at Christmas this year
Have a greener Christmas this year and recycle your Christmas tree at one of 17 recycling points across the city after the festive season.
Old Christmas trees will be turned into wood chips and used in the city’s parks and open spaces.
Councillor Jean Fooks, Executive Member for a Cleaner City, says: “I would encourage residents to recycle their real Christmas tree as this is really good for the environment. It keeps the trees out of landfill and provides wood chips for use in our local parks.”
Christmas Tree collection points are open from Saturday 5 January to Sunday 13 January.
The collection points are:
-
- Alexandra Court, North Oxford
- Atkyns Road, Wood Farm
- Blackbird Leys Leisure Centre car park
- Bury Knowle Park, Headington
- Manzil Gardens, off Cowley Road
- Cutteslowe Park
