How to recycle your Christmas tree for free in Liverpool

Liverpool City Council is encouraging people to drop off their real Christmas trees for recycling so they can be used to maintain the city’s parks.

Kenny Brew, the council’s city manager said that mulch from the trees is recycled and maintains flower beds in Liverpool’s parks, bridle paths and walkways.

“There’s a really good use, so that’s why we ask people to recycle in this way,” he said in a Liverpool City Council Twitter video.
