How to Move Your Christmas Tree Without the Mess: The "Towel Method"
1. The Step-by-Step Preparation Guide
-
Strip the Decorations Thoroughly
Before moving the tree, double-check for "invisible" tinsel and small wire hooks. If you are using a professional recycling service in Bromley, these plastic and metal items can damage industrial woodchippers.
-
The Old Bedspread Technique
Instead of carrying the tree upright, lay an old bedsheet or large garden tarpaulin on the floor next to it. Gently tip the tree onto the fabric. This catches the bulk of the "needle drop" immediately.
-
Wrap and Roll
Fold the sides of the sheet over the tree to create a "cocoon." Use garden twine to secure it. You can now drag the tree through your hallway without leaving a trail of debris.
2. DIY Preparation vs. Our Gold Service
| Task | DIY (Standard) | Our Gold Service |
|---|---|---|
| Lifting/Moving | You handle the tree | We lift and carry |
| Needle Protection | You provide sheets/twine | We provide protective bags |
| Disposal Location | You leave on driveway | We collect from living room |
3. Preparing for Your Scheduled Collection
If you have booked a standard collection, please place your prepared tree in an accessible spot, such as your driveway or front garden, by 8:00 am. This ensures our team can complete their BR postcode route efficiently.
