Looking to have your Christmas tree collected in January?

We're now taking bookings for our Christmas tree collection service for those residing in Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire between January 5th and 16th, 2026!

We've partnered with Freeland Freight Services and Hellmann Worldwide Logistics who are providing transportation and volunteers to operate the collection service.

Keenan Recycling and Leys of Banchory will further support by recycling all trees collected.
