Free Tree Recycling Service

It always seems a strange time to be talking about this, with the festive holidays not even started, but if you have a ‘real’ and unrooted Christmas tree this year, and live in Ruddington, you do need to act NOW!

Ruddington Parish Council (RPC) is again offering a FREE tree collection and shredding service for our village but is asking residents to let them know straight away if you want to make use of it. If so, please just email office@ruddingtonparishcouncil.gov.uk or ‘phone them on 0115 914 6660 by Wednesday 20th December 2023 – making sure to give your full address and contact details.

By thinking ahead, you can avoid getting your car boot full of pine needles during the usual, new year trip to the recycling centre!

RPC says: “As the number of trees to be shredded keeps on growing, we’re now spreading the collection over FOUR days. On Monday 8th and Tuesday 9th January we’ll collect trees from houses on the Clifton Road side of Wilford Road, High Street, The Green and Asher Lane (i.e. to the left of the black line shown on the map). On Wednesday 10th and Thursday 11th January we’ll collect from houses on the Loughborough Road side of these streets (to the right of the black line).”

You’re asked to leave your tree out before 7.30am on the relevant day so the Parish Council Groundstaff team can collect and shred it.
