Christmas trees

If you have food/garden waste collections then you can just leave any real Christmas tree out on the next collection day.

Otherwise you can take real and plastic Christmas trees to the council waste collection centre on Devon Street, SE1 (just off the Old Kent Road).

These are the times on the DLC website:



23rd December ? Normal Hours

Christmas Eve ? 07:00-16:00

Christmas Day ? CLOSED

Boxing Day ? CLOSED

27th December ? 07:00-18:00

28th December ? Normal Hours

New Year?s Eve ? 07:00-16:00

New Year?s Day ? CLOSED

2nd January ? 07:00-18:00

3rd January ? Normal Hours


Which differs in at least four respects from the times on Southwark's website! Left hand, this is your right hand, I don't believe you've met...


Not your fault though Mr.B, happy Christmas and thanks for being accessible for the forum this year!

Hi rendelharris,

I've had confirmation that the Dulwich Leisure Centre website was broadly correct but was missing 30 December which has now been added -https://www.everyoneactive.com/newsflash/christmas-opening-times-87/

Thanks. Without your inout this wouldn't have been corrected.

Just need the council website updated and corrected...

Worth noting that it's a Saturday timetable on London Overground from Dec 27, overnight services will run to West Croydon and Crystal Palace on New Year's Eve until around 0300.


Southeastern are also operating overnight services to Denmark Hill, Peckham Rye, Nunhead, Herne Hill, West Dulwich & Sydenham Hill on NYE from Victoria.


Route 185 will also operate overnight every 20 mins on NYE.

Have taken my tree to the recycling point in the middle of Peckham Rye for the last few years but can't find any info about it being a Christmas Tree recycling collection point this year. I live in flats so don't have garden/kitchen waste collections and don't have a car to drive to Devon Road. Any one have any ideas?

    • It doesn't matter what channel it was on, how pernicious the subject is and when it happened. Mis-representing the truth in broadcast is not only morally wrong, it's against the OFCOM code of ethics.  Everyone in the industry is trained in how not to do it, most are made to take the BBC's own 'Safeguarding the Trust' course, even if they aren't making BBC programmes.  There wasn't much fuss at the time, because no one knew about it.  "Unless you hate Britain, hate liberals, hate the BBC, want a divided country, support the most powerful person in the world despite his many failings". What the programme makers personally think or feel should never affect how they tell a story; to do so is deeply unprofessional and a sackable offence.  It's the job of the BBC and of all programming to inform viewers of the facts and let them make up their own minds. Even in campaigning documentaries.   
    • Hadn't realised that the Panorama programme that people are up in arms about was over a year ago.  There wasn't much fuss at the time so why drag it up.  Unless you hate Britain, hate liberals, hate the BBC, want a divided country, support the most powerful person in the world despite his many failings. The programme was clumsy, but the vast majority of us know that Trump had an influence.  So the Telegraph has played into his hands.
    • I tried a Lime bike once, too heavy and bulky for me but I understand that many really like them.  And very much support the concept.
