Donegal County Council has released details of how you can dispose of and recycle your Christmas tree for free.
Trees can be dropped off at 6 recycling centres at Carndonagh, Laghey, Dungloe, Letterkenny, Milford and Stranorlar during opening hours between now and the 31st of January.
Trees can also be left at a number of other major towns not served by a recyling centre.
The public is being warned that trees left at sites not approved by the council will be considered illegal dumping.
