Christmas was nearly a month ago yet trees still have not been collected in Teddington or around the rest of Richmond Borough.

There is however a very good reason for this.

COVID-19 has once again affecting our waste disposal crews.

Due to members self-isolating they were once again unable to collect waste as scheduled.

A new date has been set however for Christmas Tree Collection.

This Saturday, January 23rd, is now when the trees can be expected to be picked up.
