Not sure what to do with your Christmas tree once the decorations come down? Let us take care of it for you, with a hassle-free collection that gives your tree a greener send-off!


For a donation towards Garden House Hospice Care, our fantastic volunteers will collect your tree from outside your home and take it away to be recycled. Every donation helps us continue providing compassionate care and support to local people and their families when they need it most.


Suggested donation amounts

  • £15 could cover the petrol for three home visits by our Community team
  • £22 could help cover the cost of keeping our Hospice clean for over 24 hours, thanks to our Housekeeping team
  • £34 could provide an overnight stay in our Valerian Room for a patient’s family, keeping them close to their loved one
  • £57 could fund a session with our Rehab and Wellbeing team, from physiotherapy to a Wellbeing Through Nature group activity
  • £97 could cover 24 hours of personalised care from an Inpatient Unit nurse for one patient
  • £161 could cover the cost of pain relief medication to help manage a patient’s symptoms on our Inpatient Unit.


Postcode restrictions

Please note we can only collect Christmas trees from postcodes SG1-9, SG15-18 and AL6.

Here's what you need to do

1. Book online by midday on Monday 4th January, selecting a suggested donation amount and making sure to include:

    • The number of trees
    • The size of your tree(s)
    • Where your tree(s) will be left (this must be outside) and where our van can safely stop to collect.


2. Remove all festive decorations, tinsel and lights from your Christmas tree prior to collection... we won't be able to shred it if anything is left on there and can't return any decorations to you!


3. You must ensure your tree is placed in your specified location from 8am on Wednesday 6th January and it will be collected at some point over the next five days (by 5pm on Sunday 10th January)*. We are unable to give specific collection dates or times as the scheme works on the availability of our dedicated volunteers.


4. Feel proud knowing that not only are you helping fund Garden House Hospice Care's vital services, you are also supporting other community projects in and around North Hertfordshire where we donate the tree shreddings.


*If your tree hasn't been collected in the specified time, please let us know by 5pm on Monday 11th January and we'll send someone out as soon as possible.
