The collection due on Thursday 31 December will be on Monday 4 January
The collection due on Thursday 7 January will be on Saturday 9 January
The collection due on Thursday 14 January will be on Friday 15 January

Christmas tree collection by Dorothy House

Dorothy House will be collecting Christmas trees again this year in return for a small donation. They plan to pick up the large Christmas tree on the lawn and the trees of any residents who would like to use the service around midday on Saturday 9 January. There is a suggested donation to Dorothy House of £10 per tree which residents can put in an envelope and post through the letterbox of RCS Treasurer Stephen Little's door at no. 22 Royal Crescent, in advance of the collection.

Could residents please place their trees for collection by Dorothy House on the RC Lawn side of the railings by the large tree, and not on the pavement side so as not to cause any obstruction to pedestrians.

Alternatively, scheduled garden waste collections resume in Royal Crescent from Thursday 28 January and Christmas trees will be collected free of charge. The Council request that you please make sure all decorations are removed and the tree is cut in half (to less than 1.2m tall). You can also take your Christmas tree to the recycling centre for composting.

Rest of the year - Rubbish and Recycling is collected on Thursday.
Garden waste is also collected on Thursday. ( Please note there is an extra annual fee for this service)
