CHRISTMAS trees will be recycled by the council if residents drop them at designated recycling collection points in the new year.
Almost a million of the trees are thrown away each year in London alone, so the council will recycle real ones.
There are collections on two consecutive Sundays – January 4 and 11 – although residents are asked not to leave trees at any of the collection points after January 10.
